All applicable questions are marked with the following symbol: (the symbol)

Maybe this can become an infotext? I can also imagine that the colors could be already enough and no warning suffices.

I keep wondering whether removing the warning completely would harm accessibility - but maybe users with vision impairments have better ways of dealing with color coded information already and don't need the warning either?
