 Enabling All Diagnostics
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-In addition to the traditional ``-W`` flags, one can enable **all**
-diagnostics by passing :option:`-Weverything`. This works as expected
-with
-:option:`-Werror`, and also includes the warnings from :option:`-pedantic`.

-Note that when combined with :option:`-w` (which disables all warnings), that
-flag wins.
+In addition to the traditional ``-W`` flags, one can enable **all** diagnostics
+by passing :option:`-Weverything`. This works as expected with
+:option:`-Werror`, and also includes the warnings from :option:`-pedantic`. Some
+diagnostics contradict each other, users of :option:`-Weverything` therefore
+often disable many diagnostics such as :option:`-Wno-c++98-compat`
+:option:`-Wno-c++-compat`.
+
+Since :option:`-Weverything` enables every diagnostic, we generally don't
+recommend using it. :option:`-Wall` :option:`-Wextra` are a better choice for
+most projects. Using :option:`-Weverything` means that updating your compiler is
+more difficult because you're exposed to experimental diagnostics which might be
+of lower quality than the default once. If you do use :option:`-Weverything`
+then we advise that you address all new compiler diagnostics as they get added
+to clang, either by fixing everything they find or explicitly disabling that
+diagnostic with its corresponding `Wno-` option.

+Note that when combined with :option:`-w` (which disables all warnings),
+disabling all warnings wins.
