Sprinkling SuppressWarnings should be very low risk. Refactoring code to have the scope of the SW be as small as possible may be a bit more risky, esp. in areas where one doesn't know the code or the tests that exercise it. The tests may be good but it's not clear to me that we want to force Max to do significant refactoring in this PR.  PR 4138 has been created as the follow-on PR so I think we should help get that reviewed so that it can be integrated soon after this PR.
