Missing / Incorrect Definition

Applies to both String.prototype.padStart and String.prototype.padEnd:

The name of the maxLength parameter suggests that's the maximum length of the returned string, when it's actually the minimum length of the returned string. MDN uses targetLength for the names of these parameters.
