I'm all for making it more difficult for n00bery to ensue in harm or
confusion.

Just to make sure I understand, you used "path" instead of "addpath",
and this deleted Octave's default search path? And you would like this
to emit a warning?

If so, kindly file a feature request bug report, perhaps linking to
this discussion, and someone (perhaps you!) will hopefully get around
to it.
