    transitivePeerDependencies:

But the package-json of babel-preset-react-app does not include

@babel/plugin-proposal-private-methods

It is not a direct dependency.... because the package.json does not declare it.

however it is a dependency of

@babel/preset-env

which is as well a dependency here

But i dont understand why it appears here? (at /babel-preset-react-app/10.0.1)

I figured out it is required for the babel-preset-react-app@10.0.1 but i dont understand the mechanism how to figure out that it is a direct dependency and needs to be linked to babel-preset-react-app@10.0.1

Edit i mean:

@babel/plugin-proposal-private-property-in-object
