This one might be written at the top of the file, so it would be easier to overlook it, than having it directly at the instance declaration, which seems to be one of the major points for OVERLAPPING and OVERLAPPABLE.
The same could be said for e.g. INLINE. The extra flexibility is nice to have (e.g. because you can opt to put the pragma after the declaration, to de-emphasize it.)
