Thanks for everybody's input on this. I interpret the discussion as showing consensus for a comment with a warning near the definition of LWSP. Details: I counted 18 opinions. I couldn't see anybody arguing for "no comment or text whatsoever". I saw arguments against treating this as a Security Consideration. I saw opinions in favour of "deprecating" the construct, but I am not sure if that's an opinion for or against the health warning (since the definition of deprecation is loose here). In any case, even if you count those as "votes against" , I still see rough consensus.
