Comment:

 Here's one issue with requiring child themes to enqueue there own
 stylesheets. By default, when using a child theme, the `style.css` is
 loaded from the child theme automatically by core, without having to
 enqueue it. When you do enqueue it, you end up loading your child theme
 `style.css` twice. This point was made by @parsmizban 2 years ago. This is
 why I pursued a fix for this.

 > When you use a child theme, WordPress loads the child style.css
 automatically without using any extra code!
 > if you use wp_enqueue_style to include child style.css, It double loads
 this file

 I personally think that we need to do something besides hardcoding
 versions, or if that is the chosen route, maybe we need to look at how
 child theme `style.css` is automatically enqueued.
