Comment (by mor10):

 Replying to [comment:5 jnylen0]:
 >However, we want to continue to increase adoption and usage of the REST
 API, and I expect that even this modification will break more and more WP
 functionality as time goes on, such as API-driven themes and embeds.

 As I stated in the proposal, plugins and themes would declare REST API
 dependency.
