Found by re-running the type checker over function bodies with spec-derived argument domains (elixir-lang#15559): * Config.Provider.validate_config_path!/1 was typed by the very type it validates, making its own check trivially true. A validator that raises a descriptive error on malformed input must accept term(). * List.to_float/1 and List.to_integer/1,2 declared charlist(), which admits the empty list, but the underlying BIFs always raise on it. Use nonempty_charlist(). * Logger.Formatter.prune/1 exists to sanitize INVALID chardata (its catch-all replaces unprintable data), yet its spec restricted the input to valid IO.chardata(). Accept term(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Found by re-running the type checker over stdlib function bodies with spec-derived argument domains (the spec-domain body check from #15559):
Config.Provider.validate_config_path!/1was typed by the very type it validates, making its ownis_binarycheck trivially true per the spec. A validator that raises a descriptive error on malformed input must acceptterm().List.to_float/1andList.to_integer/1,2declaredcharlist(), which admits[], but the underlying BIFs always raise on it. Nownonempty_charlist().Logger.Formatter.prune/1exists to sanitize invalid chardata (its catch-all clause substitutes the replacement char), yet its spec restricted input to validIO.chardata(), making that clause dead per the spec.
