PHP Compatibility Checker Errors (WP Reset) / Questions before restoration

    I have been getting these errors when running PHP compatibility. I do this on a regular basis and, my first time running into it.

    I am considering restoring the site past updating it to PHP 7.3 from 7.0. The backup files are with me and are stored properly. The restore point is way past or even before we had PHP 7.0.

    Before I do this though, I have some questions.

    Considering the errors below, is it a guarantee that the site runs properly and still be responsive after restoration? Or is this just a matter of future-proofing and I should be able to restore it with no problems? Thank you.
