> The {{ClassicDependencyManager}} ignores the dependency management from transitive dependencies to maintain backwards compatibility with Maven 2, then Maven 3 (objective when extracting Aether was to keep compatibility).
> The new {{TransitiveDependencyManager}} will use that dependency management: this new behaviour is expected to be a better choice.
> It could also be named {{DefaultDependencyManager}}, once it is integrated into Maven core (version to be defined) as default new behaviour = a behaviour that is more predictible/logical, but that will break some previously working builds.
