Why not put the server URL into AdminSettings.php

Say, can I put the AdminSettings contents into LocalSettings and thus
not need to maintain an extra file?
AdminSettings.php is a standalone file that contains very little.
LocalSettings.php is part of a larger program (the whole wiki) and is
dependent on other files.
Running a maintenance script does not require running the wiki.
Two different things, two different files.
BTW - since AdminSettings.php contains the DB user and password, it's
not a bad idea to keep it hidden unless it's actually required. Rename
it, move it to another directory, whatever - just don't leave it exposed
to the web.
