> Overriding the dependency management in a module's {{<dependencies>}}
> section, the overridden value will not be preserved transitively. It makes no
> sense to be able to override the dependency management in a module if that is
> only effective in that module and nowhere else. Overriding the dependency
> management from inside a {{<dependencies>}} element should be considered an
> anti-pattern. Maven should provide a warning when it is used. During the
> development of Maven 3.4, there have been quite a few discussions on dev@
> about build issues which were all caused by overriding the dependency
> management that way without noticing this is not supported transitively.
