Comment:

 The changes to the bit about the title seem fine. There are some things
 that are a little awkward about the final sentence. For reference,
 currently in the patch:

 > Site Icon creates a browser icon (Favicon) and several app icons for
 your site. They are like an avatar for your site, giving it a visual
 representation.

 There's superfluous capitalization here ("Site Icon" and "Favicon"). I
 would not say that it is "like an avatar", as avatar outside of the WP
 context can mean a lot of things, not just a square image. I would
 specifically say that it's a square image and perhaps a hint about it
 being used small so that users can choose and/or prepare an image that has
 a better chance of a good result. Possibly something like:

 > The site icon is a square image that is used in browsers and on devices
 to identify your site. It can be displayed in various sizes, including
 very small, so choose accordingly.

 I think "choose accordingly" sounds a little ominous, so let's riff on
 this further.
