apps/upperair/.meteor/release:1

• Using a minor-only Meteor release (e.g., METEOR@3.4) can make builds non-deterministic as patch updates are pulled in over time. If you want reproducible builds, consider pinning to a full patch release (e.g., METEOR@3.4.x) across all app .meteor/release files.
  apps/upperair/package.json:1
• The Babel packages are now on different minor versions (@babel/core 7.29.x vs @babel/runtime / @babel/eslint-parser 7.28.x). To reduce the chance of subtle incompatibilities, align these Babel package versions to the same release line (ideally the same minor/version range) in each app package.json.

• There’s inconsistent spacing before the inline comments (line 14 vs 15), which makes these generated-style config files harder to scan in diffs. Please normalize the spacing/alignment here (and in the other .meteor/packages files where this same misalignment appears).
