Comment (by swissspidy):

 > A similar text in the "At a glance" dashboard widget would need to be
 updated as well.

 Not sure actually. There's not much space there to change the text.

 Anyway, my suggestion on Slack was to not add to much technical details
 (what are XML sitemaps? What is noindex?) to the copy there, and instead
 link to helphub.

 Maybe something like this:

 > Discourage search engines from indexing this site
 > This will also disable XML sitmaps.
 > ''It is up to search engines to honor this request, and this setting
 won't prevent them from crawling your website. Learn more about search
 engine visibility.''
