I can work around this with usethis::proj_set(force = TRUE), but it feels like this should "just work"?

I think the usethis::proj_set(force = TRUE) solution is acceptable given how many years we've gone without anyone banging their shins on this. And in renv it didn't really come up organically, but rather in the name of creating a situation suitable for a reprex.
