I think it's a likely source of confusion to find data files along the
load path since it is too easy to open the wrong file. Even if I
thought it was a good idea to find data files in a path, I don't think
the path for finding .m files should also be overloaded for finding
data files.

No. It's just a warning, and you can disable it using the warning
ID. Or, you can use full file names for the files you open.
