There are multiple reasons why an exception isn't allowed.
we'd have to then start adding conditionals and checks for every single situation just to tell users more details about why they can't connect. I'm really not into that, sorry.
By the way, a similar message exists, but it seems not used anywhere. It is also available in language packs, in the appropriate language (although I haven’t checked all the packs).

Code: Select all

<!ENTITY certerror.whatShouldIDo.badStsCertExplanation "This site uses HTTP
		Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that &brandShortName; may only connect
		to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this
		certificate.">
