 ### Consequences
 
 #### Positive
 - Eliminates an entire class of runtime panics caused by malformed dynamically-constructed regexp patterns.
-- Reduces the ReDoS attack surface by flagging call sites where untrusted input could flow into regexp compilation.
+- Flags call sites where untrusted input could control regexp pattern complexity or size.
 - Consistent with the project's existing philosophy of enforcing safety invariants at analysis time rather than at runtime.
