Hm, interesting. According to the docs, WARNING is to instruct the user
of any lingering danger, whereas CAUTION asks them to act carefully. And
while the first bullet point is merely a limitation (we cannot migrate
worktrees), the second bullet point is indeed a warning that concurrent
writers may cause harm. So going by that I think that a WARNING would
indeed be a better fit.
