There's a difference between "don't" and "be judicious". And a difference between regular claims -vs- legally mandated ones. The combination of "don't" and "legally mandated" seems especially bad

There's a difference between how language effects LLM output and how it affects humans.

If you mention something in a system prompt, an LLM will be more likely to mention it because it's in context unless it's explicitly forbidden in strong language and, even then, they can still work the opposite way.
