### What it does Checks for lifetimes in generics that are never used anywhere else. ### Why is this bad? The additional lifetimes make the code look more complicated, while there is nothing out of the ordinary going on. Removing them leads to more readable code. ### Example ``` // unnecessary lifetimes fn unused_lifetime<'a>(x: u8) { // .. } ``` Use instead: ``` fn no_lifetime(x: u8) { // ... } ```
