Unable to define customdiff ForceNewIfChange to fit purpose

Hi all!

I am developing a terraform plugin and want to define custom ForceNew logic.

I have a field tables Type: schema.TypeList, Elem: &schema.Resource.
This tables map has a field name of TypeString.

If a name field is updated then the resource should be recreated. If a new tables item is added to the list, then an update is allowed, but if an item is removed, a recreate should occur.

This is the code I have written at the moment, but I am not sure why it isn’t working. The ForceNew on list decreasing logic works, but not for the name change.

customdiff.ForceNewIfChange("tables", func(ctx context.Context, old, new, meta any) bool {
    newList := new.([]interface{})
    oldList := old.([]interface{})

    if len(newList) < len(oldList) {
        return true
    }

    for i := 0; i < len(oldList); i++ {
        currentNewMap := newList[i].(map[string]interface{})
        currentOldMap := oldList[i].(map[string]interface{})

        if currentNewMap["name"].(string) != currentOldMap["name"].(string) {
            return true
        }
    }
    return false
})

If I set ForceNew to true for the name field, it will trigger a recreate on an addition to the tables list.

Thanks in advance for any help.
