Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"48973" 48973]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="48973"
 Tests: Require PHP less than 8.0 for some `wpdb` tests.

 These tests ensure that `wpdb::prepare()` throws a `_doing_it_wrong()`
 notice when called with an incorrect number of arguments, or with
 arguments of a wrong type.

 PHP 8 introduces similar error messages natively, making these tests
 redundant on PHP 8.0 or later.

 Follow-up to [41470], [41662].

 See #50913.
