The change ensures the generated bytecode adheres to the APIs for the target Java release. Previously, only sourceCompatibility and targetCompatibility were used, and they might cause issues like NoSuchMethodError when a newer javac compiles with -target older_release. Note: it is good to use a new an up to date javac to avoid issues in the compiler itself, so having a proper `-release ..` configuration is vital.
