First idea... we should check all versions and add the min/max.

We need to check the oldest versions and define the minimum WP version to make documentation... |

I think it would make sense to either add a column or rename PHP max version to PHP Recommended Version

The idea is to add the information about what is the "code PHP version" supported... yes, we have a recommended version (7.1 right now) but this doesn't mean it does not work with 7.4 o 5.6.20... this table means that "if you detect a WP installation with 4.9 version, you, as a hoster, only can update, force, or whatever to "that max version". If you upgrade to a greater version it may break...
Also, recommended PHP versions does not correlate with WP versions. We changed the recommendation a month ago, without any WP launch.
