Comment (by youknowriad):

 > What is the reason for deleting these files and adding them to
 .gitignore?

 Yes, there is, these files are maintained in Gutenberg, and the source of
 truth for them is there. So their version history is there. In the same
 way it doesn't make sense to commit the "vendor" of composer dependency,
 these are php dependencies but we're just not using composer yet.

 > Ideally, Core should work, albeit in a degraded state, without running
 any build, especially without running npm commands.

 I think this is not the case for a long time now, if you don't build Core,
 you get an empty page asking you to build (before and after the commit)
