Comment:
Hi @baikaresandeep007, thanks for your interest in the HTML API and this
contribution!
These seems to be a refactor with no intentional behavior changes. The
arguments in favor of this refactor are fairly subjective and I don't
think change meets the
[https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/contribute/code-refactoring/
guidelines around refactoring]. The performance impact is unclear and the
PR notes that this is unlikely to be a hotspot. The impact on
maintainability of this block also seems highly subjective.
I'll recommend this for closure but leave it open for feedback or other
opinions.
