As an error message that is completely sufficient.

The advice messages are meant to teach the user about the normal parts
of the toolchest to use in a situation of "conflict", aren't they?

Not really.  They are to remind (to those who learned but forgot)
and to hint (to those who haven't realized they have things to learn
in this area).  Wall of text that tries to do more than that, like
"teaching", risks not getting read by anybody.

Last call to all. Keep this 'advice' or drop it?
