Description:

expire_logs_days: Purge binary logs after this many days. Removed in MySQL 8.2.0.

another 

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/mysql-nutshell.html

expire_logs_days system variable.  The expire_logs_days server system variable, deprecated in MySQL 8.0, has been removed. Attempting to get or set this variable at runtime, or to start mysqld with the equivalent option (--expire-logs-days), now results in an error.

In place of expire_logs_days, use binlog_expire_logs_seconds, which allows you to specify expiration periods other than (only) in an integral number of days.

Nihao,

There are no errors or conflicts between the two sections, so there is nothing "wrong" here to fix. Sorry, not a bug.

Duoxie,
