What steps will reproduce the bug?
It's not directly a bug I have encountered but while I was delving into Node's internal URL parser I have noticed that it diverges from the spec in some parts, specifically for kHost and kHostname. Here's an excerpt from the spec:
And here's what Node.js does:
Notice how the 2. step from the spec is all the way at the bottom which means that the host was already parsed and assigned to the URL whereas in the spec, if stateOverride === kHostname then it returns early.
I wanted to ask if there is a reason why Node diverges from the spec here or if this is a bug?
How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
