 .. option:: CheckedFunctions
 
-   Semicolon-separated list of functions to check. Defaults to
-   ``::std::async;::std::launder;::std::remove;::std::remove_if;::std::unique;::std::unique_ptr::release;::std::basic_string::empty;::std::vector::empty``.
-   This means that the calls to following functions are checked by default:

    - ``std::async()``. Not using the return value makes the call synchronous.
    - ``std::launder()``. Not using the return value usually means that the
