I'm pretty sure that the warning "If you deselect Undetermined..." is a bug, the message shouldn't be there.
My understanding is that the warning should only show up when you're selecting the languages in your settings. Those languages determine what content you see, and because most time people don't specify the language of their posts and comments, if you have "undetermined" unselected you won't see that content.
My guess as a software engineer is that the widget for language selection is reused in different places, like when choosing the languages of a community. And the warning that was added to the user settings page ended up showing everywhere the widget is used.
