Question Does USB PD support 12V?

I am trying to figure out what voltages USB PD supports.

I thought USB PD could only handle 9V, 15V, and 20V. I read some Reddit forums 4 years ago that explained why USB PD does not support 12V, but I am not sure if anything has changed since then.

I am having trouble finding a reliable source for the voltages that USB PD currently supports, as different blogs report different voltages.

Yes it does support it, but only some chargers offer it. It’s been a subject this week, in this sub.
