I think this sentence "For IIS 10.0 and later, can only be configured at the site level. Versions prior to IIS 10.0, can only be configured at the server level" indicates that dynamicTypes settings cannot be used at server level on IIS 10+. That's not correct and even default IIS 10 configuration file contains dynamicTypes at server level.

I suggest we change it to "For IIS versions prior to IIS 10.0, can only be configured at the server level. For IIS 10.0 and later, can also be configured at the site level."

Similarly, here we should say "For IIS versions prior to IIS 10.0, can only be configured at the server level. For IIS 10.0 and later, can also be configured at the site level."
