 2. For packed structs: check if each member's offset is naturally aligned (`offset % min(member_size, arch_max_align) == 0`)
 3. For structs matching the name pattern: check if `sizeof(struct)` equals the sum of member sizes (i.e. no padding)
 
-Natural alignment uses the ELF header to determine the architecture's maximum alignment (4 for 32-bit, 8 for 64-bit).
+Natural alignment uses the ELF header to determine the architecture's maximum alignment (4 for 32-bit, 8 for 64-bit), overridable with `--max-align`.
