 Apparently wp_list_authors is loading a depreciated wordpress class called
 WP Search Users, this class has now been replaced with WP Query Users but
 wp_list_authors keeps using WP Search Users.

 However the case wp list authors is only accepting some parameters,
 neither through array or through post accepted more parameter, meaning
 that something like this worked:

 {{{
 wp_list_authors('orderby=name&order=DESC');
 }}}

 but something like this did not:

 {{{
 wp_list_authors('orderby=name&order=ASC');
 }}}
   or even
 {{{
 wp_list_authors('orderby=name&order=DESC&optioncount=1');
 }}}


 My original code wasn’t working because it was stated as follows:

 {{{
 $authors = str_replace( ', ', '<br>', wp_list_authors([
                         'style'                 => 'none',
                         'optioncount'   => 1,
                         'echo'                  => 0
                 ]) );
                 echo $authors;
 }}}
