Very good catch! Thanks for reporting the problem. I will create a fix for it.

Apparently the values have changed again. The RSS feed of Wordpress produces
true/false
which is incorrect according to the RSS validator which says it should be
line 36, column 22: itunes:explicit must be "yes", "no", or "clean": false [help]

WordPress does not use this package (laminas-feed). Therefore, your problem has landed in the wrong place.
