It's like the boy who cried wolf.
In my city they decided to change the meaning of "tornado warning" to basically make it equal to a "tornado watch" where if conditions were stormy, there would be a siren and a warning issued. People started not taking it seriously. They no longer had any *real* "warning" for "holy shit guys there's a funnel cloud go to your basement NOW". I think they switched it back (I hope so) but obviously it's a dangerous system.
Obviously that's not a perfect analogy, but any time you over-expand the meaning of a warning, you devalue the warning and cause people to be far less likely to take it seriously when it appears.

Right now someone is curled in a foetal ball because I haven't used full stops, and someone else is on the phone to the suicide hotline because I said full stops and not periods
We don't warn for the inconsequential other wise warnings are meaningless, that means we have to start reeling those warnings back in a bit from the wall of text they so often are
