You can make it a compilation error via configuration of project, but I forget exactly how to do it. Some magic Microsoft thing. I made it an error in my last project and fixed it up

It was an editorconfig file thing, but navigating the docs on mobile phone is horrendous so I can't easily find it

There's much more than is listed on that page

The editorconfig rules you're referencing can turn code analyzer warnings into errors, but you still need a code analyzer to actually trigger the error.

Yeah I remember that project used Visual Studio on Windows. I'm not sure if it works outside of that environment
