mysqli was introduced in PHP 4.1.

No it wasn't.

Yes, it was.

No, it wasn't. Andy is right. Read the link you provided yourself more

Mysqli requires a minimum *MYSQL* version of 4.1, not a minimum *PHP*
version of 4.1. The minimum PHP version required for mysqli is 5.0.

Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. ;-)
