The warning when quadratic rename detection was skipped referred to "inexact rename detection". For years, the only linear portion of rename detection was looking for exact renames, so "inexact rename detection" was an accurate way to refer to the quadratic portion of rename detection. However, that changed with commit bd24aa2f97a0 (diffcore-rename: guide inexact rename detection based on basenames, 2021-02-14). Let's instead use the term "exhaustive rename detection" to refer to the quadratic portion.
