A beginless range was experimentally introduced in Ruby 2.7.0:
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/v2_7_0/NEWS#label-Other+miscellaneous+changes

Is it still experimental feature or not?

[jnchito (Junichi Ito)]

Hello, is there anyone who is responsible for this? I need this information for the book I'm writing now.

AFAIK, there was no such message as "Beginless range is experimental, and the behavior may change in future versions of Ruby!" in the first place. I am not responsible for this, but my feeling is that this feature is not quite unstable now.
