That goes back to what I said in a previous message (that you didn't answer):

"If we want to warn with the real message for image_error, either we
duplicate the Fformat call in add_to_log, which seems a waste, or we
add some function xdisp.c:add_to_log_and_warn. Alternatively,
repurposing add_to_log to also (optionally) warn wouldn't be
difficult, as it is used only nine times in the sources."
