Comment (by dswebsme):

 @justinahinon Thanks for your question and quick work on the patch. To
 clarify, this ticket is specifically referring to wp_enqueue_script() in
 all bundled themes EXCEPT twentynineteen which already uses the preferred
 `wp_get_theme()->get( 'Version' )` method.

 All wp_enqueue_style() calls in pre-twentynineteen bundled themes have
 been addressed in #46979 which is currently awaiting testing and review
 (we could definitely use your help there!)

 Finally, as a note related to static version parameters vs.
 `wp_get_theme()->get( 'Version' )` the DEV team decided that bundled
 themes prior to twentynineteen should use static version numbers for
 maximum backwards compatibility with older versions of WordPress ( ref:
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/39997#comment:30 ).

 There is still some legwork to do on this issue which includes auditing
 the last modified dates of all pre-twentynineteen bundled theme script
 assets, similar to what @desrosj and I did for #46979.

 Thanks for helping out!
