The Bug:
The warning message displayed before deleting servers from the multiplayer menu is misleading.
The message states that "<server_name> will be lost forever! (A long time!)", however, this isn't true as the server can just be added back to the multiplayer menu at any time. This may potentially frighten naive players into believing that they will not be able to re-add the servers they remove.
Steps to Reproduce:
Add a random server to the multiplayer menu.
Select the server and click the "Delete" button.
Read the warning message that's presented to you.
Take note as to whether or not the warning message displayed before deleting servers from the multiplayer menu is misleading.
Observed Behavior:
The warning message is misleading.
Expected Behavior:
The warning message would not be misleading.

How is this a feature request? The message is incorrect, as it says "'<server name>' will be lost forever! (A long time!)". People might think they'll lose progress, ranks, ect. Please stop commenting useless information, thank you.
Took me a little too long before I noticed you were pointing to " a very long time" piece. Don't deleted singleplayer worlds just go to the recycle bin?
Do inconsistencies not count as feature requests? Besides, can't Mojang just release a statement saying to ignore the bottom message when removing a server from the server list?
To both Matthew and Yellow, no.
Yellow, as long as it’s not a change request, but an actual issue, it’s valid
Can confirm in 21w41a. The expected behavior would be that this message would not be displayed upon deleting a server. Instead, a message along the lines of "Are you sure you want to remove this server? <server name> will be removed from your server list but can be readded later" should be displayed.
I'd like to request ownership of this ticket since the reporter has been inactive for over a year. I'm willing to continue to provide all of the appropriate information and will keep this ticket updated.
Feature request. We all know what happens to feature requests...
