- Attempt to publish an update

Additional Notes
- Map has never used persistable data or any persistence-related Verse code
- This error only started happening recently
- Unable to publish any updates, blocking maintenance and improvements
- Similar to issues reported in: Verse persistable data still prevents updates from being published - #100 by AtAshTag
Could you please investigate this issue? This appears to be a false positive in the backward compatibility check system that’s affecting maps without any persistence code.
