Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MSHARED-1204:
------------------------------------------------

mvn-compat is another one that can in fact be required, even more strongly than slf4j-simple, but the analyzer misreports as unused

>  slf4j-simple is sometimes added to classpaths to shut up annoying warnings from SLF4J at run and test time, even though it isn't absolutely required. Can we do better with our analysis of the common case and similar ones, rather than reporting it as declared but unused?
