New description:

 WordPress 6.9 beta 2, php 8.3

 If is defined in wp-config.php:

 {{{
 define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
 define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
 }}}

 I get a php warning:

 `PHP Deprecated:  Function WP_Dependencies->add_data() was called with
 an argument that is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 6.9.0! IE
 conditional comments are ignored by all supported browsers. in /.../wp-
 includes/functions.php on line 6131`

Comment:

 The message is intentionally added to tell theme and plugin developers
 that core deprecated the 'conditional' argument for scripts and styles in
 #63821. When the active theme and/or a plugin registers an outdated
 script, `WP_DEBUG` will show or log the message.

 I'll use the 'close' keyword but leave the ticket open. According to
 comment:29:ticket:63821
 > We can always commit with deprecation notices, and if they raise too
 many flags during beta/RC we can remove it.
