Hi, just to point out that name is mandatory too:
Developer guide
4.2.1
4.2.1. Available Fields
Although it is highly suggested that manifests contain all fields, the
fields marked as mandatory must be included. Otherwise, the add-on
will not install.

differentiate add-ons internally and is not shown to the user.
(Mandatory)
