Well, if they find them unnecessary then they would want to turn it
off and the instruction is already there ;-)

More seriously, if an advice item is found as such, then the item
either must (1) be beneficial enough to be always shown, or (2) be
so rarely shown that the turn-off instruction is unneeded.  It would
inherently be case-by-case basis but I do think we would converge
between unconditional advise() calls or advise_if_enabled() calls.
