"Emitted in inappropriate contexts" is very much one of the shapes I would expect unpleasant surprises to take, yeah. If you're writing code in C, you often need a lot of control over exactly what's happening. You might, for instance, be writing a .so for use with LD_PRELOAD, where it's important that you know everything being called so you can't accidentally recurse. You might be writing code for a sandbox, where you have an allowlist of permitted syscalls.
