In a recent community Slack thread a user that started learning the Zed language exclusively via zq became confused when they discovered the load operator and it wasn't immediately obvious to them that it would not work with zq. This was not helped by the fact this also caused a panic (#5157) so hopefully when that's fixed a more helpful error message will also help reinforce this. However, to make for a better experience when readers are reading the docs, here I propose some up-front clarity about bits of the language that work in one context but not the other.
