Comment:

 The toggle for comments reads "Allow people to post comments on new
 articles" which shows the clear distinction in that the setting only
 affects new posts. I kind of agree this change makes it more clear what
 the setting really does. Patch changes the text from "Allow link
 notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks)" to "Allow link
 notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks) on new articles"
 for both the XML RPC settings and the WordPress Discussion settings
 consistent with the wording for the comments settings
