I've installed NextJS version "12.2.3" using my CLI. It's only installed the pages directory. But in the package.json it is showing like :13.5.4". Is this any kind of bug or what is this ? Any explanation on this would be helpful.

Because I need to implement one SDK of my organization which only runs in that version.

why exactly does it only run in that version

next 13 is backwards compatible with 12 for pages directory.
