Thanks @sideshowbarker <https://github.com/sideshowbarker> ! I'll start the
updates on other things for the page this week. I have been working closely
to train another dev at my company on semantic native web components. And
extolled the virtue of MDN as being the veritable Encyclopedia Britannica
of web knowledge. I made sure to preface the conversation with what
encyclopedias used to be as I wasn't sure if they are known by people under
30 anymore :)
Accidentally replied with this on a different thread before I realized.
Appologies if you got two notifications.

Summary
HTMLElement .offset[height|left|parent|top|width] have been stable for many many years. I removed experimental icon from the main content section. This must have either been overlooked or just a simple mistake.
Motivation
It is important to properly show what attrs/properties are and are not experimental to properly encourage or discourage use in applications/websites. When the wrong information is shown, it can lead to confusion or the use/non-use of standards compliant or cross-browser features.
This page in itself needs a lot of work, there are many missing features and attributes. I will edit them and flesh the page out as well. This is not my first contribution, but I want to make sure that I do a small first initial commit and see the lag for merge before deciding if I want to continue with small incremental PRs or a larger one with more updates in a chunk for the next updates.
Supporting details
The pages on the offset* themselves do not say they are experimental, and the browser support is green across the board from extremely old browser versions. Also, nowhere else on MDN are the offset* attributes listed as experimental. I know I have been using them since at least 2009.
Example of offsetHeight on MDN where the page clearly shows it is not experimental and has long looong time browser support, since version 1 of several browsers.
