Nonsense. You seem to have drunk the kool-aid. ;-)
And no, it's not about trusting you.
Warnings are about possible danger or damage.
Pseudo warnings such as this one just dilute the meaning.
And since this one is also incomprehensible, there is no meaning conveyed except
abstract fear of some unknown danger. This is a bogeyman message.
