The friendly courtesy warning will be much appreciated by those of us who are a little slow.
I'll note that even the US Senate does it. I just clicked into what turned out - without warning - to be a 25.7 MB pdf there - a little over 3.5 hours ago, and just got unhitched from it.
I put a stopwatch on a video (YouTube) yesterday and found that each 2 seconds of that show took 24.8 seconds to download, so I only watched the first half.
