Comment (by elrae):

 Now that WordPress is officially recommending >= PHP 7.4
 https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/ do we still need to pursue work
 on this ticket? If someone is running PHP <= 7.3 it's unlikely they're
 going to be upgrading from MySQL 5 to 8 without also updating their PHP
 given how old the software is.
