Any users of a hardware wallet and accompanying software, even those that claim or really have the highest security in place, and have a big list of do's and don'ts - will be indirectly compromised if their computer or smartphone is compromised, or even if they think they follow in this case a legitimate but fake Trezor.io URL.
Then at a moment of frustration we might overlook the obvious warning signs and lose our assets.
I believe that certain warning signs are okay - but I still believe that software designers should create hardware and software solutions with a minimal of complex warning signs. It sometimes looks we - the general, not quite more than noobs - should be like pilots, that have to follow a pre-flight manual before take-off. We are common users and cannot always be expected to think like software developers. "Sorry, we warned you..." doesn't cut it.
We pay big enough money for your hardware wallets, so do your damn job and keep things KISS.
