Image with src "${src}" has both "preload" and "loading='laz
Error message
Image with src "${src}" has both "preload" and "loading='lazy'" properties. Only one should be used. What it means
Warning emitted by getImgProps when the caller sets both preload behavior (via the priority prop) and loading="lazy" on the same next/image. These two settings are contradictory — priority implies eager preloading of the image while lazy explicitly defers loading — so the component asks the author to keep only one. It is a developer-facing warning, not a build failure.

Solutions
- Remove loading='lazy' when preload is set.
Defensive patterns
Strategy: validation
When it happens
Trigger: next/image receives both preload and loading='lazy'.
Common situations: Setting preload together with loading='lazy'; only one should be used.
