large-file-warning-threshold and insert-file

The Emacs manual says:

,---- File: emacs,  Node: Visiting ----
|    If you try to visit a file larger than
| `large-file-warning-threshold' (the default is 10000000, which is about
| 10 megabytes), Emacs will ask you for confirmation first.
`----

Should `M-x insert-file' also check the file size and ask for
confirmation?

Note that the variable's doc string doesn't say what file operations
it applies to:

,----[ C-h v large-file-warning-threshold RET ]
| large-file-warning-threshold is a variable defined in `files.el'.
| Its value is 10000000
|
| Documentation:
| Maximum size of file above which a confirmation is requested.
| When nil, never request confirmation.
|
| You can customize this variable.
