--- Comment #1 from Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org> ---
Unfortunately the reality is a little more complex than that.
Restricted accounts may be invoked by the user's shell that may be
affected by environment variables. It's impractical to list all the
possible cases where enabling this has unexpected consequences, so we
leave it to the administrator's discretion and knowledge of their own
system.

I don't see any reason to modify the text to weaken the warning.
