Prompted to ask because some channels I watch on YouTube put warnings, and some don’t… But the “severity” of the flashing always seems very different in the channels that do put warnings.
I don’t currently have anyone in my life with epilepsy, but I definitely wish I understood what could be a problem for anyone I may meet in the future.

It’s a “better safe than sorry” situation. Epilepsy can be triggered by a wide range of things, like this 2 second animation from Cyberpunk that had the be patched out: https://youtu.be/HjbknFsV_NU
Epilepsy warning, just in case.
I always thought to trigger an epilepsy attack you needed to have a several second long light flash you look into, just seeing this 2 second flicker being enough really opened my eyes to how sensitive people can be to this sort of thing.
So if you have rapidly flashing lights, you throw in a warning just in case. Better let people know who might be affected than have a bunch of epilepsy cases in your hand.
