Nothing helps you ensure you remembered to do so consistently, either.

I'm game. How does the programmer tell the ASIS tool "this is one
of those things for which I want you to check class purity" (or
data-flow-design constraints, or no-nested-procedures, or whatever).
Is there a mechanism other than pragma?
Does ASIS retain comments so you can parse them?
I'm not tied to pragmas, I'm just looking for a mechanism that will
let an ASIS tool pick and choose where it should apply these
constraints. They certainly shouldn't be mandated across the
board, that would be sillier than outlawing all "use" statements.
Best,
