The documentation says:

The API components (including classes, methods, properties and event names) are similar to those used in Node.js.

While the API is nowhere compatible with Node.js, I see two solutions here:

1. Rewrite the code so it is compatible.
2. Mention in the docs that it is NOT compatible (aka "abandon")

Every new release Got needs monkey-patching because there's always something incompatible.
