There was a problem hiding this comment.
For clarity, I think that it makes sense to remove this note, and introduce a "since" key that explicitly declares support etc. That makes it more visible.
Chromium browsers support it, Firefox does not (rejects with error), Safari does not support the browsingData API at all.

@Rob--W I've eliminated all of the notes regarding removalOptions.since and move the information to explicit declarations.
