I don't mind the message as long as it will just display for a few secs and then go away. IMHO the only time it should go red and beep is IF the truck starts to veer out of the lane, or make too many corrections. It certainly seems to be able to keep in a straight line by itself on the straighter roads, and also handle the smoother curves. As most of you, I always keep my hands on the wheel.

FWIW, the torque threshold on the Lightning is significantly lower than a Tesla Model Y. That and if you pull the steering wheel too hard it does not disengage ACC. I agree the easiest solution is to disengage lane keeping on straight non-Blue Cruise roads. The truck generally tracks straight with less engagement needed than the nag and lane departure assist/warning will still mostly keep you out of trouble if you momentarily lose focus.
