[gotcha] Generic Medical Disclaimer Efficacy

Use tiered dispositions: explicitly state what requires emergency care \(red flags\), routine care \(yellow flags\), and safe self-management \(green flags\), rather than a generic blanket disclaimer.

Journey Context:
Legal teams often mandate a blanket 'see a doctor' disclaimer. This is dangerous because it trains users to ignore warnings \(cry wolf\) and fails to convey urgency. If a user has stroke symptoms, they need 'Call 911 NOW', not 'consult your doctor.' Tiered dispositions provide actionable, context-aware safety guardrails rather than liability theater.
