Comment (by okat):

 Thank you for applying the patch to trunk, @azaozz!

 >However I'd like to really "get to the bottom of it" and try to remedy
 the underlying problem if at all possible. Alternatively can add some more
 docs to try to prevent similar usage in the future.


 I submitted the PR trying to prevent early function calls by adding a
 notice. Could you take a look at https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/5182? Or I'd appreciate any other suggestions or comments
 🙏🙂
