Like when you do recursive programming, have you tried providing more/better stop conditions? If you literally just say "Continue until there are no more issues" then it'll do just that, but if you scope it better, like "Only mention issues related to X, Y or that leads to Z" and so on, you'll get less noise and more focus on issues that actually matter (to you).

also helps adding negative conditions like "do not nitpick", or specific bad attractors that you see "do not investigate/report anything related to symlinks, they are not a concern"
