> The Java API compatibility check introduced in IGNITE-24458 has several significant flaws that need to be addressed.
> What are the issues:
>  # Exclusion is possible only on the Class level instead of methods for some cases, as example, when changing the return type for a method. This approach leads to new problems in these classes being ignored and not noticed.
>  # The test structure always tests the master against a bunch of versions with the same list of suppressors. This means:
>  ** In 3.1.0, broke API compatibility somewhere by adding an exclude clause.
>  ** The same exclude clause will be applied when testing compatibility between 3.3.0 and 3.2.0 in the future. This is wrong. An exclusion clause should have a limited scope.
>  # 
> The release process should be aware of any actions required to continue supporting
> the compatibility. All required actions should be reflected in RELEASE.md
