Try `npm i @mdn/browser-compat-data`, you'll see that I'm right

This files are source files, build produces the npm package in built/ 
directory

Yes, it's a source file, upstream does not integrate it in published 
package because it's a duplication.

Here is the patch to apply to old packages:

< foo = require("mdn-browser-compat-data/html/global_attributes.json")
 > foo = require("@mdn/browser-compat-data/data.json").global_attributes

Like @rollup/plugin-xxx. "@" and "/" are not allowed in Debian package 
name. So we have to drop them. Look at package.json#name. This package 
is @mdn/browser-compat-data, not mdn-browser-compat-data
