Well I suppose a warning's not going to hurt. Even in a case like the 
occupationalStatus example where you know some points have been fitted 
exactly, it might be useful to be reminded that the standardised 
residuals for these points are then NaN and cannot be displayed. Of 
course when you don't know in advance that this issue will arise, there 
is even more reason to give a warning.

So I say add the warning,
