Comment (by Joen):

 One of the challenges we have with WordPress is that there is a lot of
 overhead to the UI, especially the dashboard. By adding another dashboard
 widget, we are effectively increasing the visual overhead to getting
 started, so even the presence there means there are more features, links,
 and text to parse. Have other options than a dashboard widget been
 considered? For example, adding links to the Help dropdown, or as
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/58820 suggests, to the About
 dropdown?
