 I’m looking at some code that uses the switch_theme hook. The docs are
 quite different between the
 (current)[https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/switch_theme/]
 docs and the old
 (codex)[https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/switch_theme].

 Specifically, the old version specified that switch_theme is best used for
 things that should happen when a theme is *deactivated*, and actions
 related to the new theme should be on after_switch_theme. The new docs
 don’t make the distinction, but the code hasn’t changed since like 4.5.
 I'm wonder whether developer.wordpress.org has the most correct info?
