It's more than that, though, it's when a program won't DWYM despite an error message indicating that the programmer knew exactly what was meant, but decided not to do it anyway.

One may make the argument that removing the default behind 'heroku console' was too pure and not pragmatic enough, but going from strictly what you are writing here, this is the logical implication: "don't write error messages suggesting what I meant, and I'll (apparently?) be happier."
