Not sure where you're coming from on that. For example, Prof Ripley has added quite a few new NOTEs to QC.R over the last few months. These caught things I wasn't aware of in the two packages I maintain and I was more than happy to fix them. It improves quality, surely. There's only one particular NOTE causing an issue: 'no visible binding'. If it were made a MEMO, we can move on. All the other NOTEs can (and should) be fixed, can't they?
