 > I can see you've posted this same comment on #26072 (related to bundling
 external assets) after been directed away from #32552. A duel posting
 scatter-gun approach is not going to help your cause, in fact it's going
 to hinder it.

 Since the issue is related, and using external resources is actually
 illegal for users in all EU states, for the aforementioned reasons,
 external resources are blocked or considerably slower than average in
 restrictive regimes like China or the Middle East, where WordPress is a
 very important tool for activists and bedroom journalists, making you
 aware is a very appropriate thing.

 Your change is the wrong type of change and thus a bad change. If a change
 is to be made, it should foremost be bundling. You can then opt to use a
 CDN via a plugin or configuration option (the latter would need to be
 added).


 > My intent for this ticket as to use a single CDN - where possible - for
 hosting external assets. Please keep the ticket on topic.

 I am. To me, who is looking at the spot in the code affected, this **is**
 the same thing.
