The Play Console asks me to remove the location permission in every version

I have a special application for kids on the Play Console. I'm trying to update with the new version. However, I keep getting the following error. I'm even trying to submit a pre-approved version from the library for review, but it shows the same error without submitting for review.

If your target audience only includes children under 13, you should remove the request for location permission from your app. Please go to the app content section.

I searched for my application code and sub-libraries, but location information is not accessed in any way.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
    <uses-permission android:name="com.android.vending.BILLING" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:node="remove" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /> 
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" /> 
    <uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE" />

This is the case with permissions perceived for apk in the app package explorer on the Play Console.
