I don't understand this sort of complaint. Would you prefer that they didn't worked on this support ever? Exactly what's your point? Airing trust issues?

Node allows native addons in packages via the N-API so any native module aren't restricted by those permissions. Deno deals with this via --allow-ffi but these experimental Node permissions have nothing to disable the N-API, they just restrict the Node standard library.

So what? That's clearly laid out in Node's documentation.

What point do you think you're making?

What is the point of a permissions system that can be trivially bypassed?

You seem to be confused. The system is not bypassed. The only argument you can make is that the system covers calls to node:fs, whereas some modules might not use node:fs to access the file system. You control what dependencies you run in your system, and how you design your software. If you choose to design your system in such a way that you absolutely need your Node.js app to have unrestricted access to the file systems, you have the tools to do that. If instead you want to lock down file system access, just use node:fs and flip a switch.
