The habit of suppressing warnings, rather than resolving the underlying issues
tends to be very common in software development. I've seen endless cases where
people redirect the output of a C or C++ compiler to /dev/null.
Fixing the warnings needs attention to detail, which is what I'd hope anyone
producing code like Maxima would do. But it seems something many people are very
reluctant to do.
