Perl warnings can be made fatal with `use warnings FATAL =>
<categories>;`, but one should be careful about which categories to
fatalise, per <https://metacpan.org/pod/warnings#Fatal-Warnings>.
Some categories are inherently unsafe to fatalise, as documented in
<https://metacpan.org/pod/strictures#CATEGORY-SELECTIONS>.
