This sentence is a bit inconsistent/unclear about what’s supported. Elsewhere the docs state "The minimum supported .NET version is .NET 8" (see docs/core/testing/microsoft-testing-platform-migration-from-v1-to-v2.md:19), so consider changing ".NET (.NET 8 SDK and later)" to ".NET 8 and later" to avoid implying the SDK is required at runtime. Also use the standard product name ".NET Standard 2.0" (not "NETStandard 2.0") and consider rephrasing the last clause to describe API compatibility across .NET implementations/target frameworks rather than "other runtimes".
