 After installing WordPress 7, the admin area briefly shows a blank white
 screen when opening the post editor through Post → Add New.


 ## Issue
 When clicking Add New under Post, the editor page initially shows a
 completely blank (white screen).


 ## Reproduction Steps
 - Install WordPress 7.
 - Log into the WordPress admin dashboard.
 - Navigate to Post → Add New.
 - Observe the editor loading behavior during the initial page load


 ## Actual Result
 The editor page shows temporarily blank/white before the post editor
 content appears.


 ## Expected Result
 The post editor should load properly on the first attempt without
 displaying any temporary blank white screen.
