Comment:

 Good catch!! Rather having a checkbox to "confirm", I would rather suggest
 to remove the "Administrator" option from the dropdown from this page.
 Since admin always has the ability to change a user's role he can easily
 do so by going to that user's profile any time.

 I agree that opening Administrator privilege for a new user registration
 should not be an option anyway!
