Resolution Note (2021.2.X):
This issue is due to the netstandard.dll implementation depending on the default .NET Framework assembly structure. This pulls in a variety of dlls and triggers the warning in the Editor. We cannot fix this issue without changing behavior and layout of the .NET assemblies. We won't be fixing the issue at this time but may revisit it in the future as part of a larger .NET upgrade.
