Comment (by jonoaldersonwp):

 This is really just the tip of the iceberg - the hreflang behaviour is an
 absolute nightmare.

 If we really want to fix this, it needs to stay in sync, rather than must
 have a one-off update. Otherwise there's not really much point.

 But... That'd require radical changes to how the sites are structured and
 managed, and, dedicated fixes for the myriad of outlier/static/orphaned
 pages, across the whole wp.org ecosystem. The homepage is really only one
 tiny piece of the puzzle; there are dozens of sites and thousands of pages
 and templates where the markup is wrong/stale/conflicting/missing.

 To be honest, I'm of half a mind just to accept that it'll never be even
 close to right, and to just try and ignore it all.
