FWIW, I've proposed we don't do this anymore, pending discussion:

While I understand this could be an issue for the TBB, I personally
don't think this is a problem for Tails: unless you do it differently
on purpose, when you're using Tails, you're using Tor, and as
a end-user one should not have to manually check or question this
fact. Runa and others, do you think this is a problem that users act
this way?

Cheers,
