Comment (by muddassirnasim):

 This change makes sense from an accessibility standpoint. Placing Screen
 Options and Help after the main heading gives users a clearer, more
 logical reading and tab order.

 A couple quick notes to consider:


 {{{
 - Confirm the update works consistently across all admin screens.

 - Run a brief keyboard/screen-reader check to ensure the new order feels
 natural.

 - Watch for any plugins that might assume the old markup structure.
 }}}


 Overall, this is a positive improvement and should help with orientation
 for assistive-tech users.
