CH03::Bitcoin Core wallet warning: drop

Browse Source 
Bitcoin Core works fine as a wallet (and I personally use it).  Although
it doesn't implement BIP39, it does implement BIP32 and many other
standards, including some significant improvements over other wallets
(such as descriptors and HWI support ).  It's also the easiest way to
take advantage of the additional verification and privacy advantages of
running a full node.

Bitcoin Core includes a reference implementation of a wallet, this is
not intended to be used as a production wallet for users or for
applications. Application developers are advised to build wallets using
modern standards such as BIP-39 and BIP-32 (see <<mnemonic_code_words>>
and <<hd_wallets>>). BIP stands for _Bitcoin Improvement Proposal_.
