There is no error, despite

Lack of clarity on this leads to repeated questions, such as https://www.yammer.com/dynamicsnavdev/#/Threads/show?threadId=1619878328786944

and the solution will not be documentation, per https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/navdevitpro-content-pr/issues/2028#issuecomment-1048011793

Why does the compiler let this through? Is it reserved for possibly being added back in the future?

Either way, I would expect apps built for runtimes that can't possibly show chartparts to error at build-time if the user tries to add a chartpart. Anything else just wastes folks' time.

Cheers :-)

Closing this issue as we currently have a lot of open items which have a much higher priority. That is not to say that we will never fix this, but for now this is being down-prioritized and closed as won't fix.
