Comment (by nigelnelles):
We reproduced the error by adding a shortcode block to the site with the
following code:
[video src="https://example.com/video.mp4"
poster="https://example.com/poster.jpg" width="800" height="450"
autoplay="true"]
With this shortcode on the site, the elements tab in the devtools shows:
<!--[if lt IE
9]><script>document.createElement('video');</script><![endif]-->
When doing the same thing on the playground generated from the PR, this
comment is not present which is the goal of the PR
