Dynamic import: Wrong compatibility data for node

[marvinhagemeister]

MDN URL: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The compatibility table says that only node versions >= 13.2.0 have support for the dynamic import statement, but the feature was backported to the 12.x release line to ease transition to ESM. So versions >=12.20.0 fully support the dynamic import statement. Release data taken from https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/ .

Node version	Release Date	Dynamic import support
12.16.3	2020-05-26	Not supported
12.17.0	2020-05-26	Supported, but marked as experimental
>=12.20.0	2020-11-24	Fully supported (nodejs/node#31974)
13.0.0	2019-10-22	Not supported
>=13.2.0	2019-11-21	Fully supported

Specific section or headline?

"Browser compatibility" section

What did you expect to see?

Correct compatibility data.

Did you test this? If so, how?

Tested locally with this test case by going through all node versions with nvm.

I think this is fixed. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import has the info if you click to expand the cell. A note in there also links to https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v12.x/api/esm.html#esm_enabling for more.
