noreferreris only required for IE 11 and lower, which we don't support anymore, so the eslint config needs to change.Then, the question is when do we want to use noreferrer? By default it lets the site we link know that we link them, it sounds like a positive thing overall.
For sponsor links, we definitely don't want to have noreferrer.
I think we must keep
noreferreron the templates / examples, as we don't want developers using the default config of eslint to have a warning when they copy & paste our content. We can wait for eslint to change their default, I reported the problem at jsx-eslint/eslint-plugin-react#3672.
