First, I've come across plenty of documentation that has commands that you can't just copy paste into your terminal. As long as the parts a user needs to fill in are clearly marked and explained, I don't see an issue. Especially in a case like this where there isn't a clear "right" answer and what works for one user may not make sense for another.
Second, I feel like there should be some sibling of Hyrum's Law (https://www.hyrumslaw.com/) that says that users will eventually do everything you tell them not to do.
If you don't want users to do something, then you need to protect them from themselves and explicitly prevent it. Just saying "don't do this" and expecting users to listen isn't going to work.
