Description:
Now "What Is New in MySQL 9.7" describes

> This section summarizes what has been added to, deprecated in, changed, and removed from MySQL 9.7 since MySQL 9.6.

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/9.7/en/mysql-nutshell.html

But I want "MySQL 9.7 since MySQL 8.4", because 9.0-9.6 were Innovation Release and I (and I seem the most of all users) didn't use them in production.

Summary between MySQL 8.4 LTS and MySQL 9.7 LTS will be good like MySQL 8.4's one
> This section summarizes what has been added to, deprecated in, changed, and removed from MySQL 8.4 since MySQL 8.0

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysql-nutshell.html

How to repeat:
See 
- https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/9.7/en/mysql-nutshell.html

And compare 8.4's one.
- https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysql-nutshell.html

Suggested fix:
Please add summary between MySQL 8.4 LTS and MySQL 9.7 LTS

I completely aggree.
Users need the "What's New" information about LTS to LTS, not Innovation to LTS.
