While removing the incorrect warning is a good step, it would be even more helpful for users to replace it with a note explaining why it's safe to commit firebase_options.dart. This would clarify Firebase's security model and prevent user confusion, echoing the useful context you provided in the pull request description.

Suggested change
::::
note It is **safe to check the `firebase_options.dart` file** into your version control system. While it contains project identifiers, it does not include private keys or other sensitive data. Access to your Firebase backend is controlled by [Firebase Security Rules](https://firebase.google.com/support/guides/security-checklist).

@nilsreichardt, this is a draft, so I leave this up to you, but it does seem like a good suggestion.
