There can be a plethora of reasons why some WordPress uses the version of a component it uses. These include, in the case of javascript, stability, browser compatibility, compatibility with other javascripts, security. That is list is not complete. Going in, unloading javascripts, or other components from core, can, and most likely will, interfere with WordPress, and/or plugins. <div><br></div><div>Just my 2 cents,</div><div><br><div>

<br><div><div>Op 18 sep. 2013, om 23:21 heeft Josh Pollock <<a href="mailto:jpollock412@gmail.com">jpollock412@gmail.com</a>> het volgende geschreven:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">This is a ridiculous requirement.<div><br></div><div>So let's imagine a scenario where a reviewer noticed that my theme deregistered core-bundled Masonry 4 versions or so ago in order to use Masonry 3. That reviewer would have said "Josh you are required to use the version of Masonry that is bundled with WordPress." To which I would have said, "but you see, the version of Masonry in WordPress is very old. The very different new version, allows me to solve all of the weird formatting problems I was getting when using Masonry in my theme." And the reviewer would have reminded me that our guidelines do not have sensible flexibility built-in to allow for the rules to be bent a bit when it solves real world problems. Instead, I'd have been given the choice of removing a feature or allowing my theme to remain broken for an indefinite period of time.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Wouldn't it have been better if the hypothetical reviewer had allowed this rule bending, in the name of making things work, that would have had little to no adverse consequences as long as I agreed to switch to core-bundled Masonry when it was updated to Masonry 3? </div>
<div><br></div><div>See how that second scenario produces better themes, which I think is the point of the theme review guidelines to begin with.</div><div><br></div><div>Of course, my theme works nicely with Masonry, because no one noticed that I acted sensibly instead instead of following the guidelines to the letter, which would have produced an inferior theme.</div>
