Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:3 dd32]:
 > Core does fetch the list of tags from WordPress.org (and we version-gate
 tag changes), and only falls back to an internal list in the event the API
 is unavailable.

 Looks like that's no longer accurate as of WordPress 4.9:

 * [WP41648] removed a bunch of theme features from the core list.
 * [WP42003] then disabled the API call on Add Themes screen "due to
 inconsistencies and to ensure tags are translated".

 With those changes, every instance of `get_theme_feature_list()` as of
 WordPress 4.9 no longer calls the API and just returns the hardcoded list.
 One exception is the instance in `install_themes_dashboard()`, however
 that function is not used anywhere.

 Created #WP50165 to track the changes and try to reconcile the
 differences, so that the API could be used again.
