+1 to this. The first fix is good though - perhaps do a V2 with just that.
Sadly meson warnings for versions have too many false positives right now -
the devs are aware of it, but don't have any good fixes for it yet, as far
as I know. For our case, we will continue to have meson warnings, most of
which are false positives like this one.
