空合并运算符(??)与ECMAScript中的逻辑OR运算符()有何不同？

ES2020 introduced the nullish coalescing operator (??) which returns the right operand if the left operand is null or undefined. This functionality is similar to the logical OR operator (||). For example, the below expressions return the same results.

const a = undefined
const b = "B"

const orOperator = a || b
const nullishOperator = a ?? b
  
console.log({ orOperator, nullishOperator })

result:

{
    orOperator:"B",
    nullishOperator:"B"
}

So how is the nullish operator different and what is its use case?
