Hello Team,
I hope you're doing well.
While reviewing the WordPress Core files, I noticed the usage of PHPDoc
blocks for certain global variables like **"_wp_tests_development_mode"**.
However, I found that other global variables such as **debug** are not
consistently documented using PHPDoc.
I believe adding PHPDoc comments for these globals can improve code
readability, assist with static analysis tools, and enhance overall
documentation clarity. It might be worth considering standardizing this
across the Core codebase.
Thank you
