Naming class member variables the same as constructor arguments is a very slippery slope because of how member variable names get resolved. Compiler is not very helpful here and we need static analysis to forbid this kind of stuff.
The following example illustrates the cause quite well:
From N4861 6.5.1 Unqualified name lookup:
In the affected code there was a use-after-move for all accessses in the constructor body, but this UB wasn't triggered.
These types of errors are trivial to catch via clang-tidy's [clang-analyzer-cplusplus.Move].
Motivation
UB is bad.
