Comment:

 In the [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/1104 linked
 pull request]:

 * Reduced the SSL tests to `https_request_failed` and `bad_response_code`
 * Deleted related conditions in the site health class
 * As tests are reduced to bad responses/connection errors, the error
 remains critical, text unchanged to play nice with the polyglots
 * Unit tests for removed code deleted

 > "WordPress is unable to verify that SSL is fully functional on your
 site. This can happen due to interference with plugins or proxy services.
 Here's how you can verify this for yourself." with a link to a doc on what
 could happen. We need to educate on this one a little more :)

 Site Health folk, are you happy to consider this for a follow up ticket so
 the docs can be prepared?
