Firmware mismatch on ${deviceId}: expected ${expected}, got

Error message

Firmware mismatch on ${deviceId}: expected ${expected}, got ${actual}

What it means

Warning raised by the FirmwareWatchWorker onVersionMismatch callback during initialize(): a device reports firmware that differs from the expected version, so its behavior may diverge from the deployed contract or contain unpatched defects.
