Comment (by subrataemfluence):

 Out of curiosity:

 What additional benefit we would have by adding those two attributes? Also
 I presume you are actually looking for adding dynamic stuff to them rather
 than just use static values like "alternate" and "application/rss+xml". If
 yes, how you want this to work?

 Replying to [ticket:40587 henry.wright]:
 > The markup of feed links should really contain a {{{rel}}} and a
 {{{type}}} attribute. For example:
 >
 > {{{<a rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"
 href="https://example.com/feed">#</a>}}}
 >
 > The {{{post_comments_feed_link()}}} is an example of where this doesn't
 happen.
