Needs a more fine-grained test if possible, even because of https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/159411906
If new architecture is enabled, android gradle plugin 7.2 will be needed or
./gradlew clean[edited based on good catch from Nicola] fails, but plugin > 7.0 is not okay until react-native 0.69+ so there is a version range + feature set that simply has a known incompatibility, that can be communicated to users thoughNoticed in reactwg/react-native-releases#13 (comment)

To clarify, calling
gradle cleanwill fail. Not a clean build (i.e. building from a clean repo). But yeah, worth to addressmikehardy commentedon Mar 3, 2022
