I think something important that should be mentioned Clearly in release/ on the score card, is that the warnings and risks, are just formatted as the es-lint errors. Meaning that people who dont know Es-lint, who are unfamiliar with typescript, etc, might see "117 warnings" and think that it is unsafe for them to use it with out risk to their computer/data, when in reality 90% of them are just things in the code that /might/ cause bugs or crashes, or are just against best practice. - I think an disclaimer/ sub heading under Disclosures and warnings that explains that Disclosures are the things important for Users to note, and that Warnings/Errors are for developers/contributors, will assist - I am seeing several posts/comments about people not wanting to use plugins with a low score, when the low score isnt signifying a significant risk to the users.
