This makes sense. While the new wording is indeed more precise, I
agree that changing an existing error message, especially one that has
been present for a long time and is already translated, should be
handled
separately from the bug fix. Keeping the current message for this
patch and addressing wording improvements in a dedicated follow-up
patch sounds like the right approach.
Thanks for pointing this out.

Soumya
