Hello I would like to give a feedback on this SE, In the proposal, it stats that In the initial discussion, multiple people were unhappy with the loss of compiler warnings for switches over non-exhaustive enums that comes with using default—they wanted to be able to handle all cases that exist today, and have the compiler tell them when new ones were added. Ultimately I decided not to include this in the proposal with the expectation is that switches over non-exhaustive enums should be uncommon.
This may not be true for every Swift based app. My scenario is that we are a service company who have a open source library for our customer to integrate our service into their app. However we also have an official application which also uses these libraries too. And since we adopted Swift features as much as possible, we do have a lot of public enum types in our libraries and use them in our app heavily. This PR will make our code base harder to maintain since we lost the complier warning for switches over non-exhaustive enums I understand that most of the Swift based apps may not suffer from this heavily like us but when they do, it’s really a huge pain to maintain this.
