Misleading clock speed on Nano Every product listing on Arduino Store
Describe the problem
https://store.arduino.cc/nano-every
The "Tech Specs" tab of the Nano Every store page says:
Clock Speed 20MHz
but the "Arduino megaAVR Boards" platform is intentionally configured to run this board at 16 MHz:
https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-megaavr/blob/5e639ee40afa693354d3d056ba7fb795a8948c11/boards.txt#L67
Although the board is capable of running at 20 MHz, to do so would require the user to modify the Arduino megaAVR Boards platform, which is a fairly advanced process. For this reason, I feel the 20 MHz clock speed stated on the store page is a bit misleading and should be changed to:
Clock Speed 16 MHz (20 MHz max)

- I believe this only corrects the information on the Nano Every documentation page. If so, it does not fix this issue as this issue is about the misleading information on the store page.

At the very least, a straightforward method to employ 20 Mhz should be provided.
What is happening in this case? It still states 20 MHz on the product page, but in practice only 16 MHz is enabled
