Comment (by nerrad):

 @andraganescu "now there is" refers to usage of `wp_add_inline_script` as
 the alternative. You can find more about usage of this function here:
 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_add_inline_script/.

 It looks like Ian added a comment on the `wp_localize_script` page
 clarifying its use too (and pointing to `wp_add_inline_script` for
 arbitrary data -
 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_localize_script/#comment-3213).
 However, if you're planning on updating the main documentation that's a
 great idea!
