That is the essence of the point! Yes you can turn off _all_ of the
extra checks of Ada if you want to or need to per final delivery
requirements. This VIOLATES NOTHING WHATSOEVER! Ada only gives
you a transparent non-obtursive capability to leave checks in if you
can afford them. If you can't so what - no Ada Thought Police are
going to throw you in jail!
Test early and at a low level - turn off checks if you have to per
the final delivery resource requirements.
