Comment (by Clorith):

 Should we then start by bumping the
 [https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/wordpress.org/public_html
 /wp-content/mu-plugins/pub/servehappy-config.php ServeHappy configs]?

 I'm thinking that we retain `ACCEPTABLE_PHP` at 7.x (maybe upping it to
 7.4, which is widely available with hosts I believe, even if 8.x isn't
 quite yet?).

 We would then just be changing the `SUPPORTED_PHP` and `SECURE_PHP`
 values. This would reduce the amount of sites seeing the ServeHappy
 dashboard widget, but the Site Health Checks actually lean more on the
 `SECURE_PHP` and `SUPPORTED_PHP` values, so would potentially flag up
 recommendations or critical notices to site owners about potential
 outdated PHP versions not receiving (official) security updates. 🤔

 This change would also mean that no additional work is needed within core
 for the first part, and we could focus this ticket more on improving the
 discoverability of critical Site Health checks?
