Additional information about the issue

No response

No.
Javascript never allows new super().
In both browser and node runtime, new super() just throws errors.

Why did the bot add the "Fix Available" label? I can't find any relevant pull requests.

EDIT: Seems like this happened to #63391 as well.

Bot's broken and no one has had the time to figure out why 😅. We don't really use the label for anything at the moment
