[20757](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20757))**
- Adds a new system status check "Missing Phone numeric check" instead of
- checking when crudding phone numbers.
+ CiviCRM relies on a MySQL function to generate a numeric-only version of phone
+ numbers. This change adds a system check to ensure the function exists
+ instead of checking for the function each time a phone number is added or
+ edited.
+

+
+ Improves user experience by removing the term "Category" when referencing
+ tags.
+
+- **Improve output triggers when logged to file
+ ([20472](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20472))**
+
+ Improves output triggers when logged to a file by adding an asort, putting all
+ the triggers into an array keyed by the statement and opening and closing the
+ delimiters just once.
+
+- **Show smarty E-notices when in debug mode
+ ([20640](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20640))**
+
+ Improves the user experience in debug mode by showing php notices (e.g.
+ "undefined variable").

+ ([20566](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20566))**

+ composer on php8 systems
+ ([20625](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/20625))**
+
+ Makes it so sites can install and update CiviCRM via CLI when their CLI uses
+ PHP8.
+
