Parses exactly as the reference parser says it should: https://jsdom.github.io/whatwg-url/#url=ZmlsZTovL2Zvby9iYXIvYmF6&base=YWJvdXQ6Ymxhbms=

You may find const url = new URL("file:foo/bar/baz") is really what you're looking for here.

It's not parsed as the specified. That is why some parts are red on jsdom.
