I don't know whose idea this "Baseline" stuff was, but man — it's *so* useful.

(Context: when you look up docs on MDN, it shows tells you if the feature is "natively supported in the core browser set for at least two major versions" - developer.mozilla.org/en-US/blog/...)
Screenshot of MDN Web Docs page for Array.prototype.findLastIndex() method. The page shows a browser compatibility section with a green checkmark indicating "Baseline Widely available" status, along with icons for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari browsers all showing checkmarks. Below this is explanatory text stating the feature has been available across browsers since August 2022, with links to "Learn more", "See full compatibility", and "Report feedback".
