Not really. You don't have to change the range, there is a warning emitted for
the Host Type (I>127 in this case), but codegen works on the worst-case scenario
for the Storage Type, so the expression is never removed. In other words, W1021
is never treated as the same as an actual False constant.

But that's kind of the point of this collection: sometimes the rules intersect,
but for most cases, they don't.
