Reword it to note that this is strongly discouraged, and include a link to the
layer opt-out mechanism that will be broken if this is enabled.

** Enable company or auto-complete globally
By default Spacemacs enables auto-completion explicitly for each supported
major-mode, it means that =company= and =auto-complete= are not enabled
globally, it allows more flexibility to choose an auto-completion engine
for a given mode.
By default, Spacemacs enables or disables =auto-completion= explicitly for each
supported major-mode, which means means that =company= and =auto-complete= are
not enabled globally. If you encounter a mode that should have =auto-completion=
but does not, consider adding a layer dependency on =auto-completion=.
You may want to enable company globally to get auto-completion
everywhere even in the modes which are not configured by Spacemacs. To do
so, you just have to add =(global-company-mode)= in the
=dotspacemacs/user-config= function of your dotfile.
As a last resort, you can set =(global-company-mode)= in your config to enable
company globally, but note that this will interfere with [[https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/blob/develop/doc/DOCUMENTATION.org#disabling-layer-services-in-other-layers][layers that try to
disable auto-completion]].
Note that if you want to enable =auto-complete= globally you will have to
disable =company= first, see the next section to do so.
