Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 For future testing, when doing so you'll need to enable gutenberg and
 [https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/5d41556d61f2851ca6c77b0ce45df17dc210c061/packages
 /block-library/src/embed/edit.js#L159-L164 comment out these lines before
 building] and testing. Or install the classic editor.

 @annezazu I'm still seeing plenty of conflicting URLs when I do a request
 for the embed code. A request to
 https://publish.x.com/oembed?url=https://x.com/therepositorywp/status/1998769871581024731
 returns the following HTML as the embed code:


 {{{#!xml
 <blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">

   </p>
 </blockquote>
 <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"
 charset="utf-8"></script>
 }}}

 The resulting iframe created by the javascript is from
 https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html

 So it looks like they're still returning a mix of domains and there still
 isn't a source of truth.
