Is there a reason you need access to all the users spreadsheets? This seems to be the correct behaviour, a scary warning if you want access to all my drive files. Imo, it wouldn't be any less scary to request access to just spreadsheets. You might consider using the Drive Picker if your use case was to let a user pick one of their spreadsheets for your tool: https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/picker https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/picker. Google handles the picking so you dont need all files access.
I started Streak (www.streak.com) and to be fair we are guilty of this as well. We ask for all files access to "future" proof what features we want to offer. I think we should change this and just ask for file specific scopes.
