We have now a mechanism to flip the default value of a flag (making it possible to opt out with --no-experimental-repl-await.
Are we confident enough about the feature to remove the flag?

That does sound like a good way to ensure an opt-out in case there are issues.

So, do we introduce --no-experimental-repl-await flag and check if it not set here or we use the ImpliesNot("--no-harmony-top-level-await", "--experimental-top-level-await");? Either way we would need to getOptionValue and check if it is not set in this condition, right?

@hemanth I believe just the ImpliesNot line is enough here, and then changing the default value for --experimental-repl-await to being enabled. That should fully cover the feature per my reading of #39023.

Cool, so experimental-repl-await shall be undocumented and enabled, --no-experimental-repl-await shall be documented.
