Please consider using child themes for modifications. feels more active as it's telling a user what to do in a friendly manner rather than sharing a best practice. I don't think this is a good change.

As the WordPress community we can (and) should help others.
I am open for text suggestions as I really believe the current text is missing that last friendly nudge to improve the site codebase to use a child theme.
Not updating the main (parent) theme: possibly resulting in unpatched leaks or errors.
The sentence was added in [13604] (plus a letter case change in [13963]).
