The manual page certainly is clear enough but the current error message
is logically wrong, as there are sufficient Xs *in* `XXs' but just
not at the end
I think this is a silly solution, and the documentation is clear
enough.
How did this happen to you? Show the place where it happened to you.
Would the text you propose actually have saved you 1 second of time
to help you realize what was wrong? I don't think so. If you
weren't familiar that

from mktemp(1):
The template may be any filename with at least six ‘Xs’ appended
to it, for example /tmp/tfile.XX.
Now when a template contains but does not end in six Xs, the error
message may imply errornous behaviour instead of bad usage:
$ mktemp XX
