Comment:
The phrase "This address is used for admin purposes" has some redundancy
now that it is adjacent to a label that says "Administration Email
Address", which has me thinking it could be replaced completely with
something more like one of @Ipstenu's original ideas of being more
descriptive & intentional...
For the single-site site-level `admin_email` setting:
{{{
Receives system notifications from recovery mode, site health, automatic
updates, password resets, and new user registrations.
}}}
And then `if_multisite()` we'd change it to...
{{{
Receives system notifications for this site, and used when sending
password reset emails to users of this site.
}}}
...and then the network-level `admin_email` setting would say:
{{{
Receives system notifications from recovery mode, site health, automatic
updates, password resets, new user registrations, and when new sites are
created.
}}}
Thoughts?
