What it reads

Clippy, with the compiler behind it. The only pass that compiles.

Tier

Lowest tier: real, and rarely urgent.

The tier bounds how severe a rule may be; its category bounds the tier.

Change it

Turn it off, or make it blocking, without touching the code it flags:

rust-doctor --rule clippy::useless_vec=off .
rust-doctor --rule clippy::useless_vec=error .

Set it once in rust-doctor.toml

Upstream
