Research direction

Search the repository for the literal “ERRORS ENCOUNTERED” and trace the warning’s implementation and any tests covering Link export failures. Confirm the intended replacement wording from the issue context, update the warning text, and run the relevant tests to verify failed exports are still reported without the alarmist label.
