downloaded gpx - "may be dangerous"

I have tried to download a route for my GPS as a tcx file and it downloads OK.  However when I try to download it as a gpx file it states  "......route name gpx is not commonly downloaded and may be dangerous"  - then gives a 'discard' option?   Why is this?

Uploaded Gpx routes changed in various places.

I have just been on a cycle tour in Spain with some friends.   They had sent me the routes on GPX files before we left.   I uploaded the GPX files onto cycle travel because I like to convert them to TCX files for my Garmin.  We noticed many variations on my routes and wondered why?   I have done a run today and uploaded the GPX route from Garmin Connect into cycle travel and notice that there are a number of variations of the route.   I will send you the GPX file and perhaps you can look at this for me and explain?

downloaded GPX routes changed in places

Why when I download a GPX route onto cycle travel does it change the route in various places??
