Additional Information
Web Mercator is an inappropriate projection to use for native area computation, so it is blocked in this tool, and the only option is a geodesic area calculation. In ArcGIS Pro 2.7, limitations are re-defined, but if the data is in GCS or Web Mercator the area is not valid. Other Mercator types are supported, but not Web Mercator.Steps to Reproduce
