 Replying to [comment:16 jrf]:
 > These backports are *''not''* intended to make older WP test suites
 compatible with higher PHPUnit versions then they previously supported,
 nor to make it possible for older WP versions to run against higher PHP
 versions then they previously supported.

 Great, thanks for the explanation. Guessing that if there's a way to not
 load the polyfills when using latest PHPUnit, that will be backported to
 WP 5.2 - 5.8 too.
