Always use the v5.1 `$using:` logic when dealing with any connection type that is not based on the `WSManConnectionInfo`. This allows the caller to use the more advanced `$using` features like variables with special names, having `$using` vars inside sub scopes, and more. `WSMan` based connections might still communicate with older versions but as the oldest supported version is v3 on Server 2012. We don't need to keep the default as v2 (which has been deprecated) to support some of the newer features.
