Why babel-node "Cannot find module" without ".js" extension?

Question

I dont know why babel-node does not import without ".js" extension.

• I have "type": "module" in package.js
• import example from "./src/example.js"; works fine
• import example from "./src/example"; doesnt work
• --es-module-specifier-resolution=node works only when I dont use babel-node

package.js

    "type": "module",
    "scripts": {
        "start": "node  ./index.js --exec babel-node -e js --experimental-modules --es-module-specifier-resolution=node "
    },
    "dependencies": {
        "bcrypt": "^5.0.1",
        "body-parser": "^1.20.0",
        "express": "^4.18.1",
        "jsonwebtoken": "^8.5.1",
        "mongoose": "^6.3.5",
        "nodemon": "^2.0.16",
        "npm": "^8.12.1"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "@babel/cli": "^7.17.10",
        "babel-preset-env": "^1.7.0",
        "babel-preset-stage-0": "^6.24.1"
    }
