Thanks for the PR!
Personally, I prefer to remove the "Both" option:
- Users who want both pieces of information can simply insert two of these blocks.
- The "Both" option can be confusing, as the full text is not visible unless you open the dropdown.
What do you think?

Maybe these are really two different blocks then? |
|
Another approach might be to add word count as a block variation, similar to how the Post Date block has a Modified Date block as a variation. I don't have a strong opinion on what approach is best 🤔 |
|
It might be a good idea to get some design feedback on this PR. The current Time to Read block has independent toggle controls for reading time and word count: 
This PR changes those toggles to dropdowns, forcing at least one option to be enabled: 
An alternative approach might be to create a block variation called "Word Count" to display the word count. What do you think? |

One block inserted twice, or separate blocks, both afford a little customizability as far as apparance, insofar as you might insert both in a row block and put your own separator between them, or something else. Not a strong opinion, but past experience tells me this flexibility is welcomed by theme designers. |

Thanks for the update.
Not a blocker, but should we update the icon for the Word Count block variation? This is because the "clock" icon is used in both blocks.

Yeah I think so, but not sure what to use! |
Maybe @jasmussen or @jameskoster can help with an icon. Having different icons will also render the icons for variation switcher in inspector controls. |

Not from this PR, but as I was checking this file I saw that the return parts.map( ( part, index ) => ( part above is not needed. We always push one item to parts array, so we should directly return the value in each if block that we now do parts.push
|
@scruffian Finally, can we fix the unit test that is failing? |

LGTM!
Let's merge this PR first and follow up with code quality improvements and icon changes.
Because not including this PR in Gutenberg 21.8 will cause backward compatibility issues. The 21.8 RC release process should start within the next 1-2 days. See #71897 (comment)

What and Why?
Based on this feedback, I changed the way this block works so that its not possible to remove all content from the block.
How?
