She was permanently disfigured by those burns. The coffee was 82-88C or 180-190F. If you went to a diner you'd get coffee 20C colder. And it would still be hot.

McDonalds shouldn't have to print a warning, I agree. They should not be allowed to keep their coffee at temperatures that would cause someone to need skin grafts after three seconds of direct contact. It was also settled out of court for an undisclosed sum, something the link in your comment mentions. A judge reduced the 2.7 million in punitive damages to less than half a million before the parties settled out of court. It's a marvel corporate capture of our media is so complete that people are still going to bat for McDonalds over a case so old it could vote. Especially when their reasoning for keeping the coffee at that temperature is to save a couple of pennies.
