Why EcmaScript5 in project? #44

Description

Hi! I researched the source code of the project and found that this module uses Javascript of the ES5 standard. This detail interested me very much.

Are there any reasons why it is impossible to update the language version to, for example, ES11 (as it is in stremio-web)?

Further, the source code will still be converted via Terser to ES5 and compatibility with older systems will remain, however, it seems to me that this will make further development keep up with the times.

Updating the source code to new standards may take time, however, as an option, you could simply
allow new versions and their features in .eslintrc

Should I make a fork and send a pull request, or maybe things are more complicated than I think?
