I think you did, but you may have missed mine. You don't agree with
using 'danger', 'warning' and caution' as attention-demanding words of
differing intensity, because that demands three special definitions that
the readers don't know, anyway. 

My point is that, if attention-demanding words of differing intensity
are considered necessary, how can they be chosen, other than the way
they are at present?

Of course, you may deny that differing intensity is necessary, so that
only one word is required, but I am not sure that there would be a lot
of support for that.
