Dear R-devel,
Consider the following clip (in R version 3.6.0, Windows):
> requireNamespace("ggplot2", quietly = TRUE)
Registered S3 methods overwritten by 'ggplot2':
method from
[.quosures rlang
c.quosures rlang
print.quosures rlang
It seems to me that if one specifies 'quietly = TRUE', then messages about S3 method overrides should be quieted along with everything else. After all, other package startup messages ARE suppressed, and even error messages are suppressed:
> requireNamespace("xyz", quietly = TRUE)
> ## (it is silent even though there is no "xyz" package)
Thanks
