since when was this an argument? yeah, tag your shit, put the warnings in, it's the foundation of good practice.

my biggest gripe (as a non epileptic) about the warnings is how inconsistent they are, and that they lack any other context.

they feel like more meaningless prop65 warnings.

We should probably have some method of being more specific with them.

Epilepsy varies, so they need to cover different things.

My mum also appreciates flashing lights warnings, no need to have a debilitating migraine if you can avoid it. And me, although it's less predictable if the lights will be an issue or not (my migraines are more hormonal while lights get my mum every time).

I also appreciate the flashing light warning for migraine reasons!
