Request: more complete pnpm to lockfile version comparisons

The existing table that compares pnpm version to lockfile version is nice, but I recently needed a more complete version of this relationship. I had to test it out myself to be sure.
Can we update this table to something like the following?
| pnpm version | generates lockfile | parses lockfiles |
| ------------ | ------------------ | ---------------- |
| 6.x | 5.3 | 5.3, 5.4 |
| 7.x | 5.4 | 5.3, 5.4 |
| 8.x | 6.0, 6.1* | 6.0, 6.1* |
| - 8.6.1 | 6.1 | --- |
| - 8.6.2 | 6.1 | --- |
| - after | 6.0 | --- |
| 9.x | 9.0 | 6.0*, 7.0, 9.0 |
| - 9.0.0 | 9.0 | 7.0, 9.0 |
| - after | 9.0 | 6.0, 7.0, 9.0 |
Rendered:
| pnpm version | generates lockfile | parses lockfiles |
|---|---|---|
| 6.x | 5.3 | 5.3, 5.4 |
| 7.x | 5.4 | 5.3, 5.4 |
| 8.x | 6.0 | 6.0, 6.1* |
| - 8.6.1 | 6.1 | --- |
| - 8.6.2 | 6.1 | --- |
| - after | 6.0 | --- |
| 9.x | 9.0 | 6.0*, 7.0*, 9.0 |
| - 9.0.0 | 9.0 | 7.0, 9.0 |
| - after | 9.0 | 6.0, 7.0, 9.0 |
It would have to be expanded to include older pnpm versions.
The asterisks:
pnpm@8.x- lockfile 6.1: pnpm 8.6.1 and 8.6.2 generated lockfile version 6.1, but after that, lockfile verison 6.0 was generated
pnpm@9.x- lockfile 6.0: pnpm 9.0.0 could not parse lockfile version 6.0, but from 9.0.1 onward, it could
- lockfile 7.0: pnpm 9.0.0-alpha versions generated lockfiles with version 7.0, but the final release of 9.0.0 generated lockfiles with 9.0
