There are multiple reasons that people might not pay as much attention to error messages:
1) there are too many irrelevant, knock-down errors caused by a single source
2) the errors are not clear in their description and attribution
3) the quality of errors varies a lot, meaning that ahead of time you don't know whether reading the error will be helpful or not, which leads to
4) you've been trained by experience to ignore errors in all tools
