What I have been saying is "we are sending a wrong message to those
users by not clearly saying 'optional' (i.e. it is OK for your Git
not to understand this optional bits of information---you do not
have to get alarmed immediately) and also not hinting where that
optional thing comes from (i.e. if users realized they come from the
future, the coalmine canary message will serve its purpose of
reminding them that a newer Git is not just available but has been
used already in their repository and help them to rectify the
situation sooner)".

As the deployed versions of Git will keep sending the wrong message,
I do not mind applying 1/5 and 2/5, given especially that Ben seems
to be OK with the plan.  I however do not think 3 thru 5 is ready
yet with this round---there were some discussions on phrasing in
this thread.
