When a user makes an innocent mistake in pipeline script, the error message is overly intense. It contains too much information that are only relevant for a few people, and that ends up masking important information for users.
A case in point is JENKINS-33629, but I have heard similar feedback from a number of people:

This should really be reported as the following:
Undefined variable 'scm' at Jenkinsfile:16
The full stack trace can be hidden under the "details" button of something similar.
Attention like this makes a big difference in the impression of pipeline to new users, as everyone makes mistakes and how quickly we can get them unstuck is a critical part of the user experience.
