Right, that's the C++17 implicit constexpr for lambdas, finish_function:

Yeah, I guess potential_constant_expression needs to be stricter in a
lambda. Or perhaps any function that isn't already
DECL_DECLARED_CONSTEXPR_P?

potential_constant_expression can't be relied on that it catches up
everything if it, even a simple if statement with a condition not yet
known to be 0 or non-0 results in just a requirement that at least
one of the substatements is potential constant, etc.
Similarly switch statements etc.
If there is a way to distinguish between functions with user
specified constexpr/consteval and DECL_DECLARED_CONSTEXPR_P set
through the above if condition, sure, cp_finish_decl ->
check_static_in_constexpr could be perhaps silent about those, but then
we want to diagnose it during constexpr evaluation at least.  But in that
case having it a pedwarn rather than "this is a constant expression"
vs. "this is not a constant expression, if !ctx->quiet emit an error"
is something I don't see how to handle.  Because something needs
to be returned, it is a constant expression or it is not.

True.  Let's go with your option 2, then, thanks.
