Summary

Node JS 16.11 brings in a change that has significant memory and performance issues with Jest - #11956. It has been identified as a upstream bug, but it has not been fixed. Since people who use yarn get the engine enforced (or decide to opt out for all packages) this pushes people upgrading to Jest 28 on to the buggy node version, which for large projects makes jest unworkable and small projects slower. So, as agreed on the bug I am lowering the required node v16 minor version to allow this work-around to continue to work.
