Currently, when looking at the plugins update table on the `/wp-admin
/update-core.php` page, it says whether the plugin is compatible with the
version of WordPress you are running and the latest version (or just the
latest if you're on it).
It states that it's 100% compatible. This seems to be left over from the
old days when people could rate if a plugin worked on a certain version,
but this doesn't apply anymore as it either does work, or it doesn't. You
can't quantify it with a percentage because it's just not possible. It
either works or doesn't.
I'd suggest the wording here is updated to reflect the current state of
plugin compatibility by replacing the percentage with either a yes or no
value.
It's my understanding that based on the meta data in the plugin readme,
it'll either be 0% or 100%, so that's either a 0 (no) or 1 (yes). I've
attached a screenshot of what I mean.
