Everything working as expected, so shouldn't ERROR be WARNING

I am backing up a user's directories from local machine titan to remote machine 
maria. On the remote machine maria file /etc/rsyncd.conf contains

  [rprice-home]
  ...
  exclude = *.dvi

I start the backup by using this command on the local machine titan:

  rprice@titan ~ rsync -av --dry-run /mnt/home/rprice rsync://rprice@maria/rprice-home

I get the messages

  sending incremental file list
  ERROR: daemon refused to receive file "rprice/demo.dvi"
  ...

I understand that the remote daemon has refused file demo.dvi because I 
specifically requested that dvi files not be transferred.  I choose that myself 
in a regular configuration file.  So shouldn't it be a WARNING rather than an 
ERROR?  I would expect to see

  WARNING: daemon refused to receive file "rprice/demo.dvi"
