> Instead of "Advised" and "Dangerous," the language could read "Better
Security" and "Not Advised."

> Even "Advised" and "Not Advised" would be better phrasing. Most
instances of javascript found in the wild aren't dangerous, and users
don't have the information required to determine *why* javascript might be
dangerous. They seem to find this confusing.
Does "Not Advised" correspond to the default setting here? If so, users
are rightly confused that we ship something that we mark Dangerous, and if
we change it to Not Advised, then they will be confused that we ship
something and then mark it 'Not Advised'.
