 =head1 PURPOSE
 
-The original Canary::Stability is a bizarre set of system checks
-that provide dangerous instructions. Among those instructions is
-never to use any Perl released after 2015, and to use a fork of
-Perl from a person who calls himself "schmorp."
-
-This stub exists only to satisfy modules (all of which are released
-by "schmorp") that list it as a dependency. It does nothing, which
-is considered far more useful than the original.
+The original Canary::Stability is a set of system checks

+recommendations. Rather than present those recommendations
+to users, we instead provide an empty stub to satisfy modules

-Canary::Stability is a forced dependency of a number of important
-perl modules. It exists only to provide dangerous advice (such as
-instructing users to uninstall their version of Perl and install
-one from 2015), absolutely none of which should ever be followed.
-
-This port installs an empty stub. If you obtain Canary::Stability
-directly from CPAN, please do not follow any instructions it gives
-you.
+This is a stub to satisy dependencies for a number of modules.
+The original Canary::Stability contains system checks that produce
+warnings that must be ignored (and which would be harmful if
+acted upon). This stub is a no-op.
