Yeah LaTeX definitely has some of the jankiest log outputs of any program. I just looked it up actually and it's basically a warning that that but it the document might not look great (I guess something like in newspapers with justified columns where you sometimes see s t r e t c h e d w o r d s.) Definitely insane to print warnings like that by default. Maybe it made more sense in the 70s?
