What it reads

Complexity, and families of near-duplicate code.

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 rust_doctor::structure::orphan_module_file=off .
rust-doctor --rule rust_doctor::structure::orphan_module_file=error .

Set it once in rust-doctor.toml
