Indeed, it does not make sense, but I realized it only when I fully
understood the behavior.

If one experiments, customizing several variables in row, it will take
time to identify the origin of the message.  Specifying in the
documentation of the Customize buffer (=customize docstring?) that the
value of this variables has to be greater than or equal to 1 will
certainly help; also having as the error message, instead of the
current one, would be even better (perhaps that is what you call a
"guard").
