 I have seen a plugin with 1+ million installations adding warnings in the
 Site Health area, which have nothing to do with the security of the site.
 This particular warning appears under "Improvements".

 The notice has a link that takes the user to an internal page of the
 plugin with two buttons:

 1. Allow plugin connect to a third-party application to perform certain
 functions and synchronize information.
 2. Buy the Pro version of the plugin.

 I'm not against point 1, nor point 2. But I don't think it's right using
 the Site Health area to advertise features that are not improvements to
 the health of the WordPress site or its hosting environment.
