 -> **Note:** The `version` meta-argument made sense before Terraform 0.13, since
 Terraform could only install providers that were distributed by HashiCorp. Now
 that Terraform can install providers from multiple sources, it makes more sense
 to keep version constraints and provider source addresses together.
