Comment (by valendesigns):

 The sad part is that I just did a search for `get_theme_mod` unit tests
 and there are none is isolation. There's some in the context of the
 Customizer getting and setting values, but not from the front-end
 perspective. We could use more coverage here anyhow.

 Maybe a plugin will demonstrate the issue better, IDK. If you feel that's
 the case then do what you think is right and we'll go from there.
