Is it intentional that the published builds for 6.0.0-pre1 are built using loom 1.7 alpha? This forces consumers to update to loom 1.7 alpha as well: jpenilla/squaremap#227. What's strange is the repo doesn't use 1.7: https://github.com/Ladysnake/Cardinal-Components-API/blob/1.20.5/build.gradle.kts#L7, but downloading the jar from releases or maven and checking the manifest shows that it was in fact built with 1.7.

Not intentional, it's most likely being pulled as a transitive dependency. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Fixed in pre2
