Thank you for working on this 🙌

I've left some feedback.

It seems like this variable and its interpolation can be removed here.

Same, it seems like this variable and its interpolation can be removed here.

This logic to remove the explicitly added type attribute is new, that did not exist before.

Will you explain your reasoning on that? To me, it doesn't seem like this function needs to remove attributes that have been explicitly added even if they may be redundant.

This is interesting and my first impression was that this work should be separate from the type attribute. However, this is certainly related to HTML5 and script tags, if the type attribute is redundant, then this likely is as well.

If we're going to change how this works, I think the most appropriate thing is to remove the CDATA wrappers entirely.

I think we can maintain the previous behavior by restoring the ! current_theme_supports( 'html5', 'script' ) && ( /*…*/ ) check to this conditional

A whole bunch of unit tests will need to be updated to account for the removal of the type attribute. That is, unless assertEqualHTML is updated to count the absence of type as the same as if type="text/javascript" is present?

I think it's important that these tests show differences in this case. I'd like assertEqualHTML to remain a faithful representation of the HTML.

The changes look good but many tests need updating.
