Due to Maven's design, elements are inherited from the parent POM to the project POM. While most of the inheritance is
fine, it also inherits unwanted elements like <license> and <developers> from the parent. To prevent this, the
project POM contains empty overrides for these elements. If you manually switch to a different parent and actually want
the inheritance, you need to remove those overrides.
