• SqlPackage or DacFx Version: latest
• .NET Framework (Windows-only) or .NET Core:
• Environment (local platform and source/target platforms):

Steps to Reproduce:

1. We release our database projects to Azure synapse through Azure Devops. In Azure Devops we use the 'Azure SQL Database deployment' task to do this. Since several weeks we notice that the deployment took much longer than before due to dropping every external table and re-create them while the are no changes made to the artifacts.
   When we do a deployment with the same publish script via Visual Studio the external tables won't be deleted.
2. This is the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\160\DAC\bin\SqlPackage.exe" /Action:Publish /SourceFile:"D:\a\r1\a\Build Database Project\drop\Vebego Azure DWH\Database\bin\Output\Database.dacpac" /TargetServerName:"" /TargetDatabaseName:"" /TargetUser:"" /TargetPassword:"" /Profile:"D:\a\r1\a\Build Database Project\drop\Vebego Azure DWH\Database\Database.publish.xml" /Variables:AzureDataLakeStore= /Variables:AzureDatalakeCredential=* /Variables:Environment=***

Did this occur in prior versions? If not - which version(s) did it work in?
