Under what conditions would a variant change?

Given that variants are used by rename directives to uniquely identify a cmdlet to rename, how do you ensure that variants remain the same even as new paths are added to an OpenAPI document?

We recently encountered a case where a variant changed from Get to Get1. This threw off our rename directives and the rename was done to the wrong cmdlet. Is there a more permanent\idempotent way to alter generated cmdlets, or ensure that variant names don't change even as new API paths are added to an OpenAPI document?

Also, under what conditions would a variant change except for the removal of a path in an OpenAPI document?

Would you give more details about how this happens?

And generally speaking, there should be not Get1 variant. If it happens, it normally means there is operationId which should be named xxx-listxxx but is wrong named xxx-getxxx. (for resource list, the verb list should be used instead of get) @peombwa
