Comment (by wildworks):

 Thanks to everyone who contributed to the ticket.

 As [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/57987#comment:5 I commented],
 the `wp_word_count` function was needed for the Time to Read block.
 However, the block has not been decided to ship to the core. Therefore,
 the `wp_word_count` function is no longer necessary.

 I think we need to audit whether the function itself is useful or not
 first. Personally, I suggest closing this patch as "Maybe later".
