I have to agree with you that some people will hate it no matter which choice 
we take, but I think that in this case, providing information that would be 
usable only in some cases is preferable.

one thing that I had not considered previously is that I know (programatically) 
what the condition codes are, so maybe in an instance where the MaxCC is zero, 
I could maybe generate (slightly) less information.

You can't please everybody, and what please a user in the more common
scenarios might not please him in exceptional cases. My advice is to
have  mechanism to control the level of verbosity, include message
text on how to change the verbosity level, and accept  that there will
be complaints no matter what you do.
