That's just Donn's style, he was just alerting us all to the noise this
is generating on boot up and how to fix them. No one else mentioned it
and they were either ignored or quietly fixed. Newbies may also have
panicked on seeing these messages flash up the screen, especially if
they have subsequent device problems.
Since this is due to what packages are installed, it may take some while
until every one is purged and updates may, if they overwrite the files
in rules.d, bring them right back.

Sid.
