 > > Site Health Info shows "User count" on both multisite and single. In
 both cases it now uses the `get_user_count` function, but this function
 still emits "Doing it wrong" and returns -1 when not on multisite.

 > As far as I can tell, it only emits `_doing_it_wrong()` on single site
 if the `$network_id` parameter is passed, which does not appear to be the
 case in Site Health.

 Correct. The returned number -1 must be the default when 'user_count'
 option not present, and I can confirm this option is not set on the single
 sites I have checked so far.

 It seems the option should be updated via a cron task
 'wp_update_user_counts'

 I can see `upgrade_600()` runs an intial `wp_update_user_counts()`.
