If I create or modify a paywall to support the new Rules and Custom variables, and publish it, what will users with older versions of the SDK see?

In my example Paywall, I have multiple headings that are hidden/shown by some Rules, based on custom variables. What happens then? Will all my layer/components appear at once?

Also there seems to be a new ‘Hide this component’  feature in the Layers list. Is that supported by all versions?

I’m not sure I understand fully the implication of using new features that require a new SDK, and what will be the outcome. The editor has this mention:

 

SDK version details

The minimum SDK version required has increased due to Rules.

We've seen this paywall served to users on older SDK versions who may see your default paywall if you publish these changes.

 

But I don’t quite understand what it implies. My ‘default’ paywall will look ok if the ‘hide’ feature is supported. But it will be a mess of duplicated content if not.
