Comment (by santosj):

 The smaller shared hosting are most likely using a dedicated machine and
 just selling pieces of it. So yeah, that would mean that everything would
 be on the same machine. It isn't really a shared host, just a reseller of
 a dedicated hosting.

 It isn't optimal to have the web server and the database server on the
 same machine. It is if you don't want network latency, but if you get a
 lot of traffic then you'll have the two processes competing over server
 resources.

 Regardless, the statement is ambiguous and a slap in the fact every time I
 have to change it. I also make a lot of installations of !WordPress, the
 only time it is convenient is, when I'm testing !WordPress on my local
 machine. It is unknown just how many hosts the ratio is, so saying any
 number is still not cool.

 "You probably don't have to change this." Might be better wording.
