This removal may have an impact on the benchmark results, potentially affecting comparisons, such as between versions 18.x and 21.x.\r\n\r\n```shell\r\nnode-benchmark-compare ./result-18vs21.csv\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='almostsorted'                                                       ***    280.49 %       ±3.94%   ±5.31%   ±7.04%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='empty'                                                              ***    -31.36 %       ±2.43%   ±3.26%   ±4.31%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='long'                                                               ***   5610.63 %     ±125.82% ±169.57% ±225.12%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='random'                                                             ***   1631.31 %      ±18.26%  ±24.61%  ±32.68%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='reversed'                                                           ***   2811.61 %      ±60.96%  ±82.16% ±109.08%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='short'                                                              ***    261.52 %       ±5.30%   ±7.13%   ±9.46%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='sorted'                                                             ***    264.81 %       ±7.48%  ±10.08%  ±13.37%\r\nurl/url-searchparams-sort.js n=1000000 type='wpt'                                                                ***    -29.95 %       ±0.54%   ±0.72%   ±0.93%\r\n```","author":{"url":"https://github.com/kylo5aby","@type":"Person","name":"kylo5aby"},"datePublished":"2023-11-05T17:07:38Z","url":"https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/50566"}
