 Replying to [comment:8 andrewhoyer]:

 Thanks @andrewhoyer for the insights.

 However, I think the "Critical" section typically includes issues that
 directly impact site functionality/security (e.g., HTTPS failures, PHP
 version warnings). While search engine visibility is crucial, it doesn't
 technically prevent the site from operating.
 However, given its business impact, I think a red badge might be justified
 in this case to draw attention.

 I like your idea of using the top admin bar to display that instead of
 admin notices to better use the space. I believe we would need some
 SVG/emoji ideas for this as well (Example- `dashicons-warning` ⚠️).

 I'll wait for others' opinions on this and will proceed with the
 implementation once we have a consensus.
