Why the "select" tag has no "placeholder" attribute?-CodePudding

All the ways to show the default value in the select tag propose to use a dumb option tag. Why there is no default way just to show a placeholder?

<select name="plan" id="plan">
  <option selected disable hidden>Choose plan</option>
  <option>Free</option>
  <option>Premium</option>
  <option>silver</option>
  <option>gold</option>
</select>

Now your problem is solved
