You have this idea to remove local denial of service advisories.

I can understand that. :-)

My idea is to move them into benchmarks/recommendations such as CIS,
not to /dev/null, as they also provide useful information for users
and administrators. CIS-like organization of the local/configuration
advisories/recommendations would make it centralized and reproducible
way of quick system verification in an automated way. That would not
remove additional work but also would not remove important
information. That would lower the "noise" on SA list and benefit
users/admins in a new way. Just an idea..

Can you understand that? :-)
