Comment:

 In another case of "let's do it because it looks cool", there doesn't seem
 to be any UX rationale for this change posted anywhere.

 The original idea seems to come from wordpress.com, which implemented
 infinite scroll on the themes screen. Ironically, it has now dropped this
 approach, in favor of simply listing all the existing themes on a single
 page.

 One can argue that with infinite scroll, you can see more themes quicker.
 However, this can be addressed by increasing the number of themes listed
 per page: #19469
