 The `wp_sanitize_script_attributes()`
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_sanitize_script_attributes/
 function] is no longer used by WordPress Core since [61485]. Its
 additional utility of adding a `type` attribute was removed in [61415].

 WordPress offers robust functionality for working with script tags:
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_get_script_tag/
 wp_get_script_tag()] and
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_get_inline_script_tag/
 wp_get_inline_script_tag()]. Developers are better off with these tools
 that work with complete SCRIPT tags instead of partial snippets of HTML
 text.
