Comment:

 I think this is something that is best solved at a hosting level by
 preventing direct PHP file access to wp-includes rather than by changing
 WordPress. Putting a check in each file for `ABSPATH` seems like an
 unnecessary use of server resources.

 Adding the close tag and looking for a second opinion before marking this
 as `wontfix`
