No warning!!!!!!
There are actually two warnings about this right in the menu when you change the difficulty. They could have been worded more clearly (and will be changed accordingly in the future), but they are there.
The idea behind it is to prevent players from exploiting the system by increasing the difficulty for the very last mission (and then getting credit and rewards as if they had played the entire manhunt on that level). Which does make sense, the current implementation of this system is just rather crude. It will be adjusted in a future patch, though the details aren't known yet.
Progress resetting when partnering with someone else is a bug and will be fixed. Your own settings should be saved and should not be affected by the settings of whichever other player's worlds you visit. It is however intended that in order to register progress for your own manhunt, you need to do the content in a world that is at the same level of global difficulty or higher.
