Listing [[lst:org-babel-latex-header-blocks]] implements this way by means of two

The old way is to define two Org Babel languages (=latex-extra-header= and
=latex-header=) as done in Listing [[lst:org-babel-latex-header-blocks]]. The
historic way is to use a special export attribute as in the function
=org-latex-header-blocks-filter= in [[https://git.sr.ht/~bzg/org-contrib/tree/master/item/lisp/ox-extra.el][ox-extra.el]]. Apparently, nobody is using

=org-latex-header-blocks-filter=. This setup keeps the deprecated ways for
backwards compatibility. A practical difference is that new way source blocks
(contrary to old way export blocks) do not work in [[info:org#Export Settings][#+SETUPFILE: <FILE>]], but only
in [[info:org#Export Settings][#+INCLUDE: <FILE>]] files.
