 Those by their very nature should almost always be indexed.

 A post type is either public or it's not. Public ones have a View link in
 posts.php. We had a similar discussion for core xml sitemaps. And same
 goes for REST API, feeds and html pages. If they can be viewed publicly it
 may, and will probably, be indexed after some time.

 This ticket is about switching from pull to push. Push has been available
 in almostt all time through "Submit your URL" forms, but their use has
 probably approximated zero. This time there is an automated way to do it,
 through standardized APIs, if I understand it correctly.

 Since WordPress core knows what content is to be presumed public and
 indexed, this can safely be implemented after other issues are solved.
