Not necessarily. The lawyers can tell us, but it seems to me that the
warnings on the Note Well are there to protect the IETF itself, whereas
this document is more aimed at warning participants to protect themselves.
If so, it doesn't necessarily need to be a BCP. If indeed it's considered
necessary to protect the IETF itself, the whole discussion changes tone.

By the way, I recommend reading Jorge Contreras's slides cited in the LLC's
statement.
