Comment:

 That's a fair point. I'm still checking everywhere but yes it looks like
 the option wasn't created before on single-site installs.

 In that case, I'm not sure `update_posts_count` is better than
 `update_option( 'post_count', 1 );`.

 It looks like `wp_install_defaults` can not be overridden by any hook, so
 I'd say that updating the option directly is more straightforward. Any
 thoughts @dlh?
