cds xsuaa suddenly requires using 'cds bind' and default-env.json no longer works

[pieterjanssens]

ERROR on server start: ❗️
Error: Authentication kind "xsuaa" configured, but no XSUAA instance bound to application. Either bind an IAS instance, or switch to an authentication kind that does not require a binding

I prefer using default-env.json as this allows me to swich cf cli sessions without affecting my developer workspaces...
This happend updating from 7.1.2 --> 7.2.1.

The deprecation of default-env.json is mentioned here: https://cap.cloud.sap/docs/node.js/cds-env#in-default-env-json

Until it's officially unsupported, I'd like to keep using it. Even when it's deprecated.

Hi piejanssens,

are you sure about that? Still works for me...

Perhaps it's due to the way I'm defining/running my profile?

  "cds": {
    "requires": {
      "cds.xt.SaasProvisioningService": true,
      "[local]": {
        "cds.xt.SaasProvisioningService": false,
        "auth": {
          "kind": "xsuaa"
        }
      },

      "cds.xt.ModelProviderService": false,
      "uaa": {
        "kind": "xsuaa"

...
}

Starting via "cds watch --profile local"
