That is merely shifting justification around.  You'd now need to
answer: Why do you consider it preferred?

A few obvious advantages of using if_enabled() form are:

 - you do not have to give "here is how to disable this piece of advice"
   yourself.

 - the code can become shorter.

and they may make it preferred to use it, when appropriate.

I am not sure what you are not sure about ;-).

If you are adding a test for a feature because it is not covered by
existing tests, and if that feature consists of two parts, it is
naturally expected of you to cover both parts with the new test,
unless there is a strong reason not to.  No?

I would understand if you said because of such and such reasons, we
should not cover the "two instances of violation, only one advice"
half of the feature, though.
