If this lands I think it warrants reopening element-hq/element-web#2925 as that was closed as everything moved to vias, this regresses that |

Alternative and probably more accurate than my first suggestion:
Suggested change
| logger.warn(`Creating permalink for unknown predecessor room ${predecessor.roomId}, unlikely to be successful`); | |
| logger.warn(`Creating permalink for unknown predecessor room ${predecessor.roomId}, unlikely to be routable on its own without via servers but we will give the user what they want`); |

Suggested change
| logger.warn(`Creating permalink for unknown predecessor room ${predecessor.roomId}, unlikely to be successful`); | |
| logger.warn(`Creating permalink for unknown predecessor room ${predecessor.roomId},`+ | |
| 'unlikely to be successful as rooms without via servers are usually not routable'); |

The phrasing here makes successful ambiguous about what will be successful. It kinda makes it seem like creating the permalink is unlikely to be successful.
Whereas I think we're trying to explain that a permalink for a random room ID is unlikely to get the user to right place.
