Yes, if they know a short-and-sweet instruction is at the top of the
page, "just one click away" is a good justification, but the reason
I suggested to add the instruction to the warning is because the URL
alone does not tell them that there is a short and easy-to-follow
instruction is behind it, not giving them enough clue to judge if
they have time for that or not.
