Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Reproduce the behavior with a core WordPress gallery and the Settings > Media tiled-gallery option, then trace Jetpack's gallery transformation and rendering entry points. Done means the same post displays as a Jetpack Tiled Gallery when that setting is enabled, including with the Twenty Twenty and Twenty Twenty One themes.
