kubectl apply reports error "Operation cannot be fulfilled on serviceaccounts"

I have a ServiceAccount YAML file which I am applying to a new cluster.

My YAML is like below:

apiVersion: v1
items:
- apiVersion: v1
  kind: ServiceAccount
  metadata:
    creationTimestamp: 2019-03-20T23:17:42Z
    name: default
    namespace: dev4
    resourceVersion: "80999"
    selfLink: /api/v1/namespaces/dev4/serviceaccounts/default
    uid: 5c6e0d09-4b66-11e9-b4e3-0a779a87bb40
  secrets:
  - name: default-token-tl4dd
- apiVersion: v1
  kind: ServiceAccount
  metadata:
    annotations:
      kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: |
        {"apiVersion":"v1","kind":"ServiceAccount","metadata":{"annotations":{},"name":"pod-labeler","namespace":"dev4"}}
    creationTimestamp: 2020-04-21T05:46:25Z
    name: pod-labeler
    namespace: dev4
    resourceVersion: "113455688"
    selfLink: /api/v1/namespaces/dev4/serviceaccounts/pod-labeler
    uid: 702dadda-8393-11ea-abd9-0a768ca51346
  secrets:
  - name: pod-labeler-token-6vgp7
kind: List
metadata:
  resourceVersion: ""
  selfLink: ""

When I apply to the new EKS Cluster at version 1.16, by the command kubectl apply -f <yaml file> I get the error as below:

Warning: kubectl apply should be used on resource created by either kubectl create --save-config or kubectl apply
Error from server (Conflict): Operation cannot be fulfilled on serviceaccounts "default": the object has been modified; please apply your changes to the latest version and try again
Error from server (Conflict): Operation cannot be fulfilled on serviceaccounts "pod-labeler": the object has been modified; please apply your changes to the latest version and try again

Remove resourceVersion, selfLink and uid from the yaml before applying. Kubernetes maintains consistency of objects using version and trying to override it with a wrong version leads to this error.

resourceVersion: "80999"
selfLink: /api/v1/namespaces/dev4/serviceaccounts/default
uid: 5c6e0d09-4b66-11e9-b4e3-0a779a87bb40
...
resourceVersion: "113455688"
selfLink: /api/v1/namespaces/dev4/serviceaccounts/pod-labeler
uid: 702dadda-8393-11ea-abd9-0a768ca51346
