Research direction

The issue names no source files or tests; begin at the command-line breaking-change comparison for OpenAPI specs and reproduce a readonly true-to-false change. Done means the tool no longer flags that transition as breaking while preserving the false-to-true behavior, with the reported Azure REST API Specs case covered by verification.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I changed few properties readonly from true to false and breaking change tool flagging those. But, I don't expect those to be breaking , it is same as adding new property ( not removing it which is changing readonly from false to true).
