You removed "g" and "c", but they are accepted in patterns.

>perl -wcE"qr/(?c:foo)/;"
Useless (?c) - use /gc modifier in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(?c <--
HERE :foo)/ at -e line 1.
-e syntax OK

>perl -wcE"qr/(?g:foo)/;"
Useless (?g) - use /g modifier in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(?g <--
HERE :foo)/ at -e line 1.
-e syntax OK
