Why did you repeat a typo from the previous patch subject?

Did you add just a metavariable for this implementation detail?

How do you think about to use the following SmPL code variant?

expression subE1 <= as.E1, subE2 <= as.E2, as.E1, as.E2, E3;


> + when != \(&E1\|&E2\|&subE1\|&subE2\)

I suggest to move the ampersand before the disjunction in such
SmPL code exclusion specifications.

+ when != & \(E1 \| E2 \| subE1 \| subE2\)

I would prefer an other code formatting at such places.

+coccilib.report.print_report(p2[0],
+ f"WARNING: array_size is already used (line {p1[0].line}) to compute the same size.")
