What type of issue is this?

Incorrect support data (example: BrowserX says "86" but support was added in "40")

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

For Firefox, there is a note: "Since Firefox 48, the Windows key is no longer treated as a meta key." However, as noted elsewhere in the page, this changed back in Firefox 118.

So this should be updated to something like "In Firefox 48-117, the Windows Logo key was not treated as a meta key."

What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?

No response

What did you expect to see?

It would be more accurate to say something like "In Firefox 48-117, the Windows Logo key was not treated as a meta key."

Did you test this? If so, how?

I can only confirm that the key is detected now in Firefox 138.

Can you link to any release notes, bugs, pull requests, or MDN pages related to this?
