Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Hi there, thanks for the ticket!

 Just noting that this previously came up in comment:18:ticket:54420.

 The test was added in [39906] / #28121 to make sure that the list of theme
 features pulled from the WordPress.org API returns the expected data
 structure. It seems that mocking this response might defeat the purpose of
 the test, as it was specifically written to protect from unexpected
 changes in the WordPress.org API response.
