Upload failure because of duplicate Add-on ID

Hello,

I cannot upload my addon because of this message:

I uploaded a test version of my web extension in the past and deleted it afterward. Is the ID now blocked forever? “See full validation report” only shows a warning!

Thanks to @mat for this answer on chat.mozilla.org!

IDs belonging to deleted add-ons can never be used again. Both the API documentation and Developer Hub have strong warnings about the fact that deletion causes the ID to be forever unusable.
