Hi Airtable Team 👋

Opened this issue out of confusion, as per https://node.green/ basic Promises have been available since way back in Node.js v4. So why add it? Referencing #147

Also, if somebody is bundling this package for web, their whole app is gonna need promises, so they are better handled at app-level instead of package level, because if every package tries to polyfill their own, we end up with a bazillion Promise user-land implementations.

The Promise polyfill is not needed with the outlined techinal
requirements for node or browser support.
