Sure, just tell them "I'm too stupid to read so I demand my money back"

So, just stay out of California. Easy peasy!

The worker hasn't got time to read every label either and I doubt they
sell any other kind of tubing. I've bought clear vinyl tubing twice
at HD, in the last 18 months, but somehow I can't remember what either
of them was for.

Just about everything has that California warning. They must have
made some mistake when they wrote the law, because I'm sure it's not
doing what they intended.
