Summary

The rest of Magnetometer API is behind a flag in Chromium; these features would have no effect without the flag turned on.

Test results and supporting details

via @foolip in web-platform-dx/web-features#2631

In Chromium the features is controlled by a flag which is off by default: https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:third_party/blink/renderer/platform/runtime_enabled_features.json5;l=3940-3943;drc=bdbfc851687b28b24b80bccbc4c027bfe05a701b

I didn't check the version numbers—I figured it doesn't matter that much, but plausible that these things appeared after the initial Magnetometer API.
