Netgear R7800 2.4GHz radio

Looking at OpenWrt default wireless config (latest snapshot):

config wifi-device 'radio0'
        option type 'mac80211'
        option path 'soc/1b700000.pci/pci0001:00/0001:00:00.0/0001:01:00.0'
        option band '2g'
        option channel '1'
        option htmode 'VHT20'
        option disabled '1'

left me wondering why there is option VHT20? I understand 2.4GHz radio0 is limited to N, so should be HT20...

they update N from 150M 64 QAM to 200M 256 QAM for 20Mhz but left calling it N
think it was under wifi 5
maybe openwrt will added it in finaly
