Description

https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/enable-repeatable-package-restores-using-a-lock-file/

Rationale
See comment from Microsoft(Chet) here https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/48795#issuecomment-3001803076
>Our current recommendation for users that use lock files is to also lock their SDK versions via global.json with no rollforward, so they(sic) their entire toolchain stays in lockstep.

Discovery of this recommendation is currently hard (recently improved by docs updated due to below issues)
