Comment (by goldfire):

 I had thought that `-Wunused-pattern-binds` did more than just this corner
 case... looking at it now
 ([https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/using-
 warnings.html#ghc-flag--Wunused-pattern-binds manual entry]), I do think
 we should enable this by default. I suppose a proposal is in order, but
 that's annoyingly heavy. Oh well.
