Just gonna quote what I said on the previous page. It is absolutely not your place to tell someone whether their disability is valid or whether accommodations for them are 'pointless' or not. As someone who works in education and primarily works with children with dyslexia and other word and visual processing disorders, this line of thinking is absolutely not the way. Also I'm not even going to address the "just use a translator" part of your comment because I'm genuinely shocked you posted that without seeing anything wrong with it.
EDIT: Thank you for the rewording, that's much clearer and I see that as a valid concern
Previous comment which addresses the accessibility concern vvvv

While I 100% support revamping the warning system so its actually used as intended, I don't think restricting it to text only will do anything to adress the problem.
Not only will this not prevent people from using them for other things, such as DNIs and "don't do this/that", despite the claim that this will help accessibility, this is actually a huge step backward in accessibility.
I have ADHD and have a lot of trouble processing large bodies of text, and sometimes even bullet lists will pass right by me. English is also my second language, and sometimes people tend to list things in their warnings that I tend to not understand at first. Because of this, I tend to use visual content warnings, since they're more friendly to people with similar issues as myself, but can be relatively universal across language barriers. HTML can also be used to make content warnings more legible and visible for those with dyslexia or other visual processing disorders. Being unable to use HTML would cut away a large amount of steps that people have taken to improve accessibility while at the same time doing nothing about those that use content warnings to peddle sales, tell you not to copy, etc etc. Sure, you might get rid of a few people using content warnings inappropriately, but it's not exactly difficult to make a text-only version of a DNI and place it in your warning. Seizure-inducing gifs should already be against the rules, as well as anything that makes a warning illegible or obsolete in its purpose (EDIT: Such as bright colored text that warns about bright colors, or an image with a gun that warns about guns, etc etc)

A better solution would be to make inappropriately used content warnings a reportable offence, or to have checkboxes for each character, which are expressed as a standardized, large, legible warning for that character's content.
