Comment (by noisysocks):

 To better illustrate this proposal, I rewrote
 `render_block_core_navigation_link` using `wp_el`. You can see how that
 looks here:

 link-render_callback

 existing libraries that we can utilise or get inspiration from?
 I suppose it's more common in other PHP codebases to use a templating
 language. See #33472. It's a much more heavyweight solution, though. I
 like that this proposal is optional: another tool to go into a developer's
 toolbox.
