Then I'd like to bring to your attention that you can have the @ come from a variable too, which means you can have conditionally silent files too. That always seemed to me like the perfect middle ground between silent compiles and knowing what's going on if things do fail.

  $ man make | grep -A2 silent
       -s, --silent, --quiet
            Silent operation; do not print the commands as they are executed.
