No it doesn't? The attribute is inherited from the primary template unless your 
explicit specialization *removes* the attribute. https://godbolt.org/g/ZuXZds

> Warnings can easily become unreadable

This is true of all template diagnostics and isn't specific to clang-tidy's 
treatment of them.

This sounds more worrying, but at the same time, your link behaving by design 
and doing what I would want it to do. The presence of the deprecated primary 
template isn't what gets diagnosed, it's the *uses* of the deprecated entity. 
This is called out explicitly in [dcl.attr.deprecated]p4.

I would be strongly opposed to that change to -Wdeprecated-declarations.

We may be at an impasse here, but my viewpoint is unchanged -- I think removing 
the template arguments is inconsistent with other diagnostics. I'll defer to 
you on this, but I think it's a mistake and definitely do not want to see it 
used as precedent.
