That feedback is from the Theme Review Guide - <br>
<br>
<h4> <span class="mw-headline"> Child Theme Support </span></h4>
<p><small><em>This section is draft only.</em></small>
</p>
<ul>
<li> Themes are <b>required</b> to facilitate the use of <a
href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes" title="Child
Themes">Child Themes</a>. A "basic" Child Theme (i.e. a <tt>style.css</tt>
with <tt>Template</tt> header tag and <tt>@import()</tt> of
the Template <tt>style.css</tt>), when activated, should
function exactly as the Theme itself functions.
</li>
<li> Themes are <b>required</b> to include functional and
resource files in a manner that facilitates the use of Child
Themes:
<ul>
<li> Use <tt><a
href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_template_directory_uri"
title="Function Reference/get template directory uri">get_template_directory_uri()</a></tt>
to include functional files, or resources that <i>are not
intended</i> to be included in/over-ridden the Child
Theme.
</li>
<li> Use <tt><a
href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_stylesheet_directory_uri"
title="Function Reference/get stylesheet directory uri">get_stylesheet_directory_uri()</a></tt>
to include resources that <i>are intended</i> to be
included in/over-ridden by the Child Theme.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><br>
BUT - this section is draft only? Does that mean that it's not ..
required? I'm confused .. although I didn't get much sleep last
night, that might be it.</p>

<div>@jose . Recently I have developed a theme Appointment
version 1.1 which is not-approved till date and the team
review member gave the following feedback " <b>Themes are
required to facilitate the use of Child Themes. A "basic"
Child Theme (i.e. a style.css with Template header tag and
@import() of the Template style.css), when activated, should
function exactly as the Theme itself functions.
bloginfo('stylesheet_url') and
bloginfo(stylesheet_directory) were found in the file
header.php. Use get_stylesheet_directory_uri() instead.</b>"

<div>From what I can recall it is recommended but not
required. I believe it was Chip that added something
about that in the Theme Review Codex. It was also
discussed some time ago. Can't really check at the
moment though.<br>
