Comment:

 The `imagesloaded` library was included in Core to be used in conjunction
 with the `masonry` library.

 While vanilla JavaScript could be used to accomplish the same things in
 modern times, the intention here is to update this external library to the
 latest version in case someone is still utilizing it. Some basic scans of
 the [https://wpdirectory.net/search/01GKHMH1VJB6MNF479WTQF77Y8 plugin] and
 [https://wpdirectory.net/search/01GKHMHVKEKEG1E6Z5E7586RYD theme]
 directory show that a fair number of sites are still enqueuing this
 library.

 Once an external library is included in WordPress Core, it very rarely is
 removed for backwards compatibility reasons.
