Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 That file only exists in [https://github.com/WordPress/meta-
 environment/blob/master/wordpresstv.dev/provision/sandbox-
 functionality.php Meta Environment repo on GitHub], so perhaps it should
 have been reported there, but I guess here is fine as well :)

 The function is there as a fallback so it could be used in `the_video()`
 and `the_video_image()` in [source:sites/trunk/wordpress.tv/public_html
 /wp-content/themes/wptv2/functions.php?rev=5015&marks=486,550#L474 wptv2
 theme] without Jetpack, so changing the name doesn't make much sense.

 I think it should be moved to the theme itself, with a `function_exists()`
 check (a check alone wouldn't be enough, as `mu-plugins` load earlier than
 regular plugins).
