Or some drivers have a different opinion on what is hard, or emergency braking.

If it is working as designed, then we must assume the braking was in the 'emergency' range of braking, so good it does work to warn others.

Personally I like the idea my car will give others a warning if I have to brake hard in front of them, anything to help others respond more quickly.

BTW, if they do activate in heavy braking can be deactivated with the hazard button or pressing the accelerator. So no issue if you are pulling away again.
