"Create posts" privilege page lists incorrect minimum character length (in "About me" summary) required for expanded usercard to be shown

When the expanded user cards privilege was made universal, the minimum summary comment length was reduced from 28 characters down to 6 in 2020.

However, the create posts page in the help center still lists the minimum as 28 characters:

Replace [your text here] with your desired summary (of at least 28 characters)

[emphasis added]

Can the help center be updated to reflect this change?

The images are also wrong. I don't think any profiles show the shadow effect.

As an aside, I'm not entirely sure it makes sense for this to be under "create posts". I understand it was probably just moved to the existing 1-reputation privilege page, but it seems disjoint from the rest of information on the page and is very hard to find by looking at the top-level /privileges page. I don't know if it's a significant enough feature to warrant its own 1-rep entry though (e.g. this terribly worded mock) or just changing the existing summary... though that's likely a separate conversation.
