CommonJS CommonJS — require() works on every Node.js version

karma-spec-reporter ships CommonJS only. require("karma-spec-reporter") works everywhere. import "karma-spec-reporter" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.
