Comment (by Otto42):

 Well, 3 out of 4 is 75%, not 99%. ;-)

 I just think that the current wording sucks, and causes confusion. Look
 around at the number of people who claim to be in the "1%", it's not
 minor. Google found several examples.

 I don't claim to know what the wording should actually be, but "you
 probably won't need to change this" is not particularly helpful when the
 user DOES need to change it. It should say something about what the
 setting is, what it is for, and probably where the user can find out what
 to fill in for it.

 Because people do not see it as something that they have to worry about,
 they get mighty confused when they use the 1 out of 4 hosts that do
 require changing it. It is a setting that they need to know about, and the
 wording should reflect that.
