 I just upgraded a site using Woocommerce to 4.9.  The upgrade process
 deleted the attribute key and value for the variation attribute, but only
 if they used double quotes (or so it seems).  For example, I have a WC
 variable product with about 10 variations for photography.  The variation
 values are things like Metal Print 8" x 10", Metal Print 11" x 14", etc.
 I also have variable products that have variation values such as small,
 medium, and large.  The variation names that had double quotes in them
 were removed (e.g., Metal Print 8" x 10"), but the variation names that
 didn't have double quotes did not get deleted (e.g., Small).  The rest of
 the variation data seems to be there, but I haven't checked to see if
 there was anything else that had a double quote that got clobbered.  I had
 to restore my site from backup to reclaim the lost data.
