"I have other means to ensure that my secondaries will get a proper zone
file without relying too much on serial numbers"...

Notify/AXFR/IXFR are not the only mechanism for zone file transfer; if
you are not using those mechanisms you presumably shouldn't care about
the serial so much... So I can see a use case for a scheme that turns
that CRITICAL into a WARNING; however I'd worry about the accidental use
of such a scheme.
