I consider myself a very experienced developer and to boot I have worked through a huge amount of warnings removal in several programs. I have been caught before between the subtle difference between warning removal and removing warnings for the purpose of highlighting bugs. Experience is not the issue, mundane means that even experienced programmers will hide the bug by correcting the warning. The goal of the task is to highlight bugs by removing obvious warnings then taking your time to eliminate the rest. Do this too fast and your fingers and quick solutions will take over. I speak from experience.
