Can you clarify what you mean by legal here?

I understand your point, but, even if it's not in the version, having a
keyword that the project is still in incubation is important (from a legal
perspective, I don't talk about the release itself).
In the version, artifactId or classifier don't matter, however, having this
flag is important IMHO.
