Comment (by westonruter):

 @EatonZ I don't know either. The issue should not happen because `wp-
 includes/widgets.php` is only required in core once inside of `wp-
 settings.php`: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/3e6e1a12f6cff5cf6ed9ec73975a7f86e41f5989/src/wp-
 settings.php#L217

 There aren't any other instances of the file being required/included, per:

 {{{
 ack '(require|include)(_once)?\b.+?/widgets\.php' --php src/*.php src/wp-
 admin/ src/wp-includes/
 }}}
