OK, that one definitely qualifies as a bogus CVE.  How would you document all
the ways people can use your code incorrectly?  Will the docs end up with
statements equivalent to the apocryphal "Do not hold the screwdriver in your
hand with the blade facing upwards and run with it and trip and poke it into
your eye, since this may void the warranty"?  Or this sort of thing:

My favourite on there is the fire-risk warning on a box of firewood, but the
rest are pretty good too.
