It's not equivalent.

e.g. if you want to set point at beginning of line, you can use
beginning-of-line (or forward-line, depending on the circumstances)

Now what the warning says is : if you're interested in move to
beginning-of-buffer, don't use beginning-of-buffer, use the other
approach instead.
