Agreed. I would expect the D54565 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D54565> version of 
`-Wctad` to be off-by-default, but turned **on** by nearly everyone, so it'd be 
a middle road. We'd have to try it and see. :)

I think that's the same question as "Are there open-source projects making use 
of C++17?" If C++17 projects exist, then either they're making use of CTAD on 
purpose, or they're making use of it accidentally (in which case `-Wctad` would 
be able to count the number of accidents).  I just went and did an analysis of 
yomm2, Yato, and nytl: 
https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/2019/01/16/counting-ctad/
yomm2 and Yato do not use CTAD. nytl uses CTAD heavily and intentionally, and 5 
of its 30 instances are on a single class which has no deduction guides. (I 
//think// there's no bug. If it is a subtle bug, then that would be amazingly 
strong evidence in favor of Eric's heuristic!)

Yikes! That's a new one to me. But not CTAD-related, I agree. :)
