The current messaging on the HTTPS accordion could be improved to
illustrate seo and performance benefits.
Current verbiage;
An HTTPS connection is needed for many features on the web today, it also
gains the trust of your visitors by helping to protecting their online
privacy.
*Grammar Sidenote: At minimum "helping to protecting their online
privacy." should be "helping to protect their online privacy."
Pulling from some of the points on the related article;
https://wordpress.org/support/article/why-should-i-use-https/
I would suggest as a start;
"An HTTPS connection is a more secure way of browsing the web, with many
services now having it a requirement. Some benefits of HTTPS is it makes
your site faster, benefits your search ranking, and gains the trust of
your visitors by helping to protect their online privacy."
