Comment (by audrasjb):

 Replying to [comment:40 swissspidy]:
 > The only confusing thing is that if you had set the default role to
 "Administrator" and then change it, you can't change it back to
 "Administrator" because it's excluded. You'll have to work around this
 with a plugin or via `wp-admin/options.php`

 As said above by multiple commenters, I don't think it is much of an
 issue, since installations where Administrator is the default role are
 very rare use cases. I think we can go with the implementation proposed in
 PR5893.
