This is already covered in the doc: https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/cli.html#useful-v8-options
V8 has its own set of CLI options. Any V8 CLI option that is provided to node will be passed on to V8 to handle. V8's options have no stability guarantee. The V8 team themselves don't consider them to be part of their formal API, and reserve the right to change them at any time
|
Closing this because the existing CLI docs already cover the V8 stability note that this PR tried to add. I will avoid duplicating that wording. |
