Comment (by Clorith):

 I did just leave a note on the related ticket at #48390 (sorry for not
 spotting this ticket sooner) about the inclusion of version strings in the
 servehappy notice (which is what we call the dashboard widget notifying
 users of outdated PHP versions).

 I'll cover it here as well, for completeness, and to get input whee
 possible;

 I'm personally not a fan of numbers in user-facing strings, as they make
 text appear more technical than they need to be, especially when the
 numbers don't mean anything to the end user. That being said, I'm always
 open to discussions about it, so in an ideal world, what does this look
 like to you, how would you frame it so that it's accessible to users
 without seeming like too technical of a task?
