Sure, there is some ambiguity on where MS would prefer these kinds of
files. But what is clear is that the current location USER/Documents
is causing a serious issue.

Currently, there is no option during install, b

Exactly. This is an accessibility issue and a serious barrier for some
beginners. It's possible to work around the error message, but users
should
y project environment managers
like renv. It should just change the global default for Windows R
users.
Also, I believe that on Mac it is not in Documents, but it's in the
equivalent of %USERPROFILE%/R.
