Scala 2.13.6 Unused Parameter Value for Higher Kinded Type

When cloning the latest version of scala-pet-store and changing build.sbt to only compile to Scala 2.13.6 (i.e., changing crossScalaVersions := Seq("2.12.14", "2.13.6") to scalaVersion := "2.13.6"), sbt compile gives the following error about the higher kinded type for Cats Effect Sync being unused:

This could be an upstream issue with sbt-tpolecat or some kind of incompatibility between the Scala compiler and/or Sync and/or higher kinded types. Or I could be interpreting this incorrectly. Anyway, the quick and dirty solution for anyone else having this problem is to disable the sbt-tpolecat plugin (comment it out in project/plugins.sbt) and declare your own scalac options in build.sbt.
An alternative solution is to continue using the sbt-tpolecat plugin and make the compiler not fail on warnings:
// build.sbt
scalacOptions --= Seq(
"-Xfatal-warnings",
)
