That's fine if you see the message, which you should, and the system
does not suffer an unplanned reboot, which it shouldn't. But leaving a
system in a state that won't reboot following a crash or power failure is
not particularly clever, making the warnings fatal sounds a safe default
to me. As this is Gentoo there will always be a way to turn the airbags
off and even disable the brakes :)
