Maven modules that require versioning - maven

Question

I created a new project with the org.wildfly.archetype:wildfly-jakartaee-ear-archetype:27.0.0.Final-SNAPSHOT archetype and then added a library module to get the following project structure:
project
+-->project-ear
+-->project-ejb
+-->project-lib
+-->project-web
However, in my project-lib/pom.xml file the dependency for this new library requires a version, where as the EJB and WEB modules do not. Why? And is there a way to configure the project-lib/pom.xml so that the project-ear/pom.xml doesn't require a version on a library that is part of the same project?
