Comment (by westonruter):

 I just left a [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/48456#comment:17
 comment] in #48456 with a workaround:

 > Note that since classic scripts cannot explicitly depend on script
 modules (#61500), this is currently implemented as a bit of a hack. A new
 `wp-codemirror` script module is registered with an empty string `src`.
 This module has `espree` added as a dynamic dependency. The empty string
 has the effect of preventing the `wp-codemirror` script module from being
 printed, while at the same time any of its dependencies still get added to
 the `importmap`.
