1427572 - Contradictory statement in 'about:config' page

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 417724

(Firefox :: Settings UI, enhancement)

Description

[Kaartic Sivaraam]

When visiting the 'about:config' page when the warning has not been disable you would see 'This might void your warranty!'. That seems contradictory as I've always thought firefox comes with absolutely no warranty. I think the following portion of 'about:license' guarantee that.

I could understand it's to warn the end users about the danger of modifying the configuration using the page but it could also be done using statements that aren't contradictory like "Danger ahead!" etc., That would not confuse certain users like me who expect valid statements, a lot.
