  2. How would you like to improve it?

Change the text and the links to MySQL 8.0. Notice that there are other links on the same page that is linked to MySQL 8.0.

Also a quick check showed even more 5.7 links in the documentation (possibly more mentioning of MySQL 5.7, where it should be 8.0)

This indeed needs to be updated. However this is not something that was omitted by accident. I'll go over this and other pages covering functions and change MySQL 5.7 in links and text to MySQL 8.0 but I also need to check if we need to update anything about MySQL compatibility.

This might also be a good time to add some examples to these pages as well (see also #15417 )
