warning category
also called warning type
What KIND of warning this is — a region-neutral hazard-type token riding one warning statement as its qualifier: choking-hazard, flammable, keep-away-from-children, not-for-children-under-3, allergen, chemical-exposure. Cardinality one: a single warning statement is of one kind (a product with several kinds of hazard carries several warning statements, each with its own category). The category makes warnings filterable across the store without parsing the free-text copy, and stays independent of the jurisdiction that mandated the notice.
Warning category is answered with one word chosen from the warning categories list — the same word shared across every product that uses it.
It is a qualifier of warning — it has meaning only inside a warning statement, one per statement, never on its own. It belongs with warning to compliance — where it is from and what it meets.
It is answered inside every warning statement, not as a standalone question on a kind.
Answered inside every warning statement — not a standalone slot on any kind.
