Comment (by westonruter):

 I drafted a dev note section for the field guide:
 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PpVQE9kuNE0KWfQxUQKfrbzfuRBkuSg6Sz7-NUWCsKI/edit?tab=t.0

 I wanted to take the opportunity to provide context for why this function
 was needed and why `wp_slash()` is //still// needed, since authors can
 still liable to pass unslashed data to functions that require it.
