Description

Hi. Could you add Chrome109 to the list?

That is similar to having [FF 115 ESR](https://compat-table.github.io/compat-table/es2016plus/#firefox115) on the list. Chrome and Edge version 109 is the last browser available for Windows 7 users, Windows 8/8.1 and Windows Server 2012. See detailed Chrome/Chromium compat. list: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/7100626?hl=en

Given that upgrade barier for some users I think it is less useful to have [CH 119](https://compat-table.github.io/compat-table/es2016plus/#chrome119) listed then to list 109. I think you can safely remove all but 2-5 versions of Chrome per given Windows version. Perhaps also include chromium when it breaks compatibility with Android in future (currently broken at Android Oreo, 2017).

So those are probably not useful, but v109 would be useful

Chrome is unfortunately higher then Firefox on the list:

Research direction

Start with the linked ECMAScript compatibility table and inspect how Chrome versions are currently represented. Compare the requested Chrome 109 entry with the linked Chrome support information; done means the requested version is represented and the policy for retaining other Chrome versions is resolved.
