+### False positives SFC
+For components with Stateless Functional Components (often used as helper render methods);
 SFC is a function that takes prop(s) as an argument and returns a JSX expression.
 Even if this function gets called from a component the props that are only used inside SFC would not be considered used by a component.

+### False positives intermediate variables
+when assigning a part or a whole props object to a variable and using it to access a prop value.
+
+```js
+class AComponent extends React.Component {
+  render() {
+    const { props } = this;
+
+    return <div>{props.aProp}</div>;
+  }
+}
+AComponent.propTypes = {

+suggested code structure to avoid the issue:
+
+- accessing prop directly
+```js
+class AComponent extends React.Component {
+  render() {
+    return <div>{this.props.aProp}</div>;
+  }
+}
+AComponent.propTypes = {
+  aProp: PropTypes.string
+};

+- or assigning a final prop to a variable.
+
+```js
+class AComponent extends React.Component {
+  const { aProp } = this.props;
+  render() {
+    return <div>{aProp}</div>;
+  }
+}
+AComponent.propTypes = {
+  aProp: PropTypes.string

+
+Using Intermediate variables might be desired and unavoidable for more complex props structure.
+Like for shape prop types. To avoid false positive in this case make sure `skipShapeProps` is set to `true`.
