No, it's not the case.

Are those tons in Emacs, or in third-party stuff?

Eh - there are?

My guess is that most of the warnings you are annoyed from are from
native compilation (which is new and not the default and not even used
by all developers, and tends to emit much more warnings than byte
compilation).

But wasn't it you who advertised everybody should use the newest Emacs
and enable the newest features and grow with the outcome?  And you
haven't looked for a way to turn the warnings off (or handle them in
some other way)?
