Description of the Change
String.prototype.substr() is deprecated so we replace it with String.prototype.slice() which works similarily but isn't deprecated.
.substr() probably isn't going away anytime soon but the change is trivial so it doesn't hurt to do it.
Alternate Designs
It would also be possible to use
substring()instead ofslice()Why should this be in core?
Best to not use deprecated functions
Benefits
No more deprecated functions
Possible Drawbacks
None
