Comment (by enricocarraro):

 I worked on refactoring all script tags so that their attributes can be
 controlled in  [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/498
 this] pull request for #39941.
 Now I'm working on another PR focusing on refactoring inline event
 handlers and JavaScript URIs in a way that is as clean as possible, and
 that doesn't impact the page rendering time;
 Page rendering time becomes a slow when there are many inline script tags
 spread across the page; solutions to this could be:
 * grouping all event handlers and JavaScript URIs, and printing them
 together at the end of the page
   * could be done using WP_Scritps;
 * moving them to JavaScript Files
   * not an option for all, as some receive data from PHP;
   * it's tricky to understand which pages can be grouped together and thus
 include the same JavaScript File;
 * adding the defer attribute so that the script can only be executed after
 document parsing is completed.
