Comment:
Welcome back to Trac, @LiamMcArthur, and thanks for the report and PR!
I agree with your assessment that the singular word version should be
used.
[https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%205-y&q=website,web%20site&hl=en
Google Trends] shows "website" has been the preferred term for some time.
Filtering make.wordpress.org for these terms shows a similar preference
([https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Amake.wordpress.org+%22website%22
"website"] vs
[https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Amake.wordpress.org+%22web+site%22
"web site"]). I've left a review on your PR to help move this forward.
