I'm not against clear text, but its effectiveness is limited, especially IMO when it's long. Ohh there's a GUI to create WinForms - https://poshgui.com https://theitbros.com/powershell-gui-for-scripts/ |

native build tools.

The script introduced in #22645 to install Visual Studio and Python on Windows should work reliably in most scenarios. But it can only go so far, if a user wants to customize the installation or has custom policies in place, the alternative installation methods should be used. The script is designed to be as simple as possible, because for other options and customization there are already detailed instructions that the users can follow.
This PR adds a warning about that.
