No, actually the false positive rate of these flags is practically zero. (I'm not sure if it's 100% zero, but I used those extensively, reported many bugs and every time a developer told me "this is a false positive" they were wrong.)

The reason they aren't enabled by default is that that's not what they're designed for. They have a significant performance impact, you can't enable them all at once, they conflict with other security features and they may introduce security issues.

These are developer features. They aren't there to run your production code, they are there to test during development and bug finding.
