The hint was introduced a long time ago when broken TSX implementation was found in Haswell and Broadwell CPUs. Since then many more CPUs with TSX were introduced and and disabled due to TAA vulnerability. Thus the hint is not very useful and I think removing it is a better choice then updating it to cover all current noTSX models.
