Comment (by bridgetwillard):

 Hi Core,

 Felix reached out to the Marketing Team.

 I agree with @mcdwayne that the phrase "to the letter" has "a tone" as he
 puts it.

 I'll be more bold and say it's condescending at best frustrating at worst.
 As a blogger first, not a Marketing Team Rep, I would have no idea what to
 do and even if I saw this, I would be frustrated.

 I prefer the text in WHIP core2.png since PHP versioning is part server-
 side.

 The admin notice is a good way for basic awareness. The user should ask
 their host. That communication from host customer to host should help with
 voluntary migration.

 I love the landing page that it takes the user to and that text is
 informative and friendly.

 Thanks for letting us take a look.

 Kindly,

 Bridget
