Honestly it looks more scary that it actually it.

How about "can cause boot issues." which is the original wording of @sharpenedblade

Refind doesn't cause boot issues. It actually fixes them on Ubuntu atleast. Maybe there is some miscommunication here.

Instead of this warning paragraph, just say it's optional in the main paragraph. You can bold it.

Some people have reported that removing rEFInd fixes some bugs in the discord, I don't know how accurate that is but it is probably real since multiple different people have said this. I think those issues are pretty rare though, definitely not enough for a big warning box.

Ok I think it's resolved now.
If either of you have links to more information about what issues it resolves or might cause let me know and I'll link them as well. A quick search didn't turn up anything too obvious.
