Research direction

Start with issue #5498, then inspect the warning uses in lib/iris/fileformats/nimrod_load_rules.py, lib/iris/fileformats/_nc_load_rules/helpers.py, and lib/iris/init.py at the linked lines. Identify which subcategories were retained for compatibility and determine the intended replacements for the next major release. Done means the affected warning uses are consistent with that decision and the relevant project checks pass.

Description

Release: Major

📰 Custom Issue

#5498 revealed several existing uses of warning subcategories that could not be changed without it being breaking. These should therefore be addressed at the next major release, to make Iris' use of warnings as rational/unsurprising as possible.
