As far as I can remember (from a debugging session with Wireshark),
Aether only requires this *if* the SNAPSHOT artifacts in the remote
repository are stored with timestamps in their version. If they are
stored with a literal string "SNAPSHOT", then Aether will be able to
construct a path to the SNAPSHOT artifact without the help of
maven-metadata.xml. (FWIW, a while ago [1] I asked how to explicitly
switch off this fallback behavior.)
Best wishes,
Andreas
