It doesn't express that message. You see the message which you know is intended. What about `inhibit-set-match-data'? That name is suitable, but I hope to find a three-word name that is also suitable. How about string-match-no-match-data? "no-data" is a bit vague, but this should be clear. That name is clear, but I'd rather find a shorter one.
