Additional information

API was deprecated in Node v22.0.0 - https://nodejs.org/api/deprecations.html#DEP0180:

Calling fs.Stats class directly with Stats() or new Stats() is deprecated due to being internals, not intended for public use.

Docs also mention:

Stat objects are not to be created directly using the new keyword.

Not sure what the alternative is here. Maybe just use fs.statSync() or return an empty object if the file doesn't exist?
