How is that more actionable? What does "provide a more explicit value" even mean in this context? |

You're right — my change made the message longer but not necessarily more actionable. I'll revise it to clarify the ambiguity and provide a concrete suggestion on how to fix it. |
I've reverted the additional wording since it wasn't making the message more actionable. I understand that improving this likely requires adding more specific context at the call sites rather than changing the base error message. Happy to explore that in a follow-up if needed.
