Comment:

 Related/duplicate: #9165 (see also [979] and [2444])

 While sites ideally would not have a user named 'admin' anymore, excluding
 only the one user (if found) is the
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_list_authors/
 documented use] for the `$exclude_admin` parameter.

 The default value is true, so excluding based on role or capability could
 remove links unexpectedly for //all// administrators' post archives.
