It's up to the release manager now to decide whether the pitchforks at Google or the pitchforks in the larger Python community are sharper. ;-) At this point, I think removing the warning code is the prudent course. If someone wanted to find an easy and safe way to make it only be triggered when the import fails, it could stay in.

I created a patch (#1515361) intended to do just that.

Unfortunately, something appears to be misconfigured in my ISP's mail server, and as a result, my messages aren't making it to this list. So you may not have noticed Guido's re-posting of my message announcing the patch.
