It now says:
"All newly issued ids should be in canonical form. Use the canonical form given in the warning message for guidance."

While an improvement, it needs to say that old ids cannot be corrected and the old thing you can is prevent it happening in future. It might therefore be simpler to not flag this problem at all.

Now do you see why canonical ids are stupid and irrelevant?
