 > At the risk of derailing this, these function names would be the first
 times in code that `parent` is officially acknowledged, over the existing
 template & stylesheet usages.

 This also crossed my mind a while ago, but I decided I preferred
 `get_parent_theme_file_uri()` over the rather confusing sounding
 `get_template_theme_file_uri()`. Also, yeah, at some point we just need to
 commit this, lest another five years pass :-)
