Comment (by afercia):

 Worth noting in 7.0 there's at least one more page that uses this pattern:
 the new Connectors page at `wp-admin/options-connectors.php`. At least
 there's a H1 heading there but the inappropriate usage of the `header`
 element and the ARIA landmarks nesting should be fixed there as well.

 I'm not sure I understand why these pages use a full white background
 color. There have been long discussions with a recent attempt to use a
 full white for the admin pages background (I think in #62831). The
 prevalent opinion was to not do that. Those changes were reverted. Now I
 see full white again, which is against any usability, UX, and
 accessibility best practice I'm aware of. It's a well-known design
 principle:
 - Never use full white.
 - Never use full black.
