I agree with the proposed change.  Notice seems better than warning, 
for the reasons provided.  If not technically correct, it will at least
encourage use rather than scare people off...

"TAD (Technology Attachment Disorder) is an unshakable, impractical devotion
to a brand, platform, product line, or programming language. It's relatively
harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
