it’s to protect themselves from a lawsuit.
these warnings aren’t added retroactively to protect customers, they’re added proactively to save on court settlements.

This doesn’t even seem like the most egregious “weird warning”.
Thinking you can use a pet urine cleaner for fibres on a shaggy dog isn’t madness, it’s just “nope, actually a skin irritant”.

“My dirty pet was in the car, so…”
They forgot to warn you about not using it as shampoo. They’re so getting sued.

Generally warnings are written after something happens, so that means at some point someone used “Carpet Shampoo” on their pet or something and sued a carpet shampoo company
Ive heard about the dog owner who washed thier dog, and used the microwave to dry it. Didnt end well.
