      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      From https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/mongodb-node-js-driver-missing-dependencies-when-installed-with-pnpm/266598:

      Whenever I try to deploy my application, which uses Node.js for the backend and MongoDB for the database, I get errors at runtime related to missing dependencies (BSON or mongodb-connection-string-url, for example).

      I use PNPM, and unless I add the --shamefully-hoist flag, I get said errors.

      I haven’t had this issue with any other packages. I even tried in a new project, and the same behaviour was observed, with the only dependency in said project being MongoDB.
