Comment (by mlaetitia):

 I wanted to add something to the description:


 Both screens use an inline classic script that calls
 `import("@wordpress/boot")` to bootstrap the page. For this to work, the
 browser needs the import map (`<script type="importmap">`) to already be
 in the DOM. When certain plugins are active, the import map prints *after*
 the classic scripts instead of before them, so the browser can't resolve
 the bare specifier.
