I should note that because we are using a caret version range (i.e. ^14.0.0-next.0), that we do end up installing 14.2.0 regardless. However, as per previous versions of @angular/cli, the minimum version of ^14.2.0 should be used to avoid accidental incompatibilities.

Just pushed out a fix in 14.2.1. Make sure your CLI is up to date, and it should generate projects with stable versions.
