 == Test Report

 === Env
 * WordPress 6.0-beta3-53290-src and patch version
 * Theme: Twenty Twenty Two (edited), Twenty Twenty (edited)

 === Steps to test
 1. Upload **block** theme that:
 - doesn't have `index.php` nor `templates/index.html`
 - doesn't have `index.php` but has `templates/index.html`
 - has `index.php` but doesn't have `templates/index.html`
 - has `index.php` and `templates/index.html`
 2. Upload **non block** theme that:
 - doesn't have `index.php` nor `templates/index.html`
 - doesn't have `index.php` but has `templates/index.html`
 - has `index.php` but doesn't have `templates/index.html`
 - has `index.php` and `templates/index.html`

 === Is it possible to upload a theme (before|after the patch)?
 Block theme:
 - ❌|❌
 - ❌|✅
 - ✅|✅
 - ✅|✅

 Non block theme:
 - ❌|❌
 - ❌|✅
 - ✅|✅
 - ✅|✅

 === Question
 Should it be allowed to upload **non block** theme that doesn't have
 `index.php` but has `templates/index.html`?
