TL;DR

auto_create_network=false requires "Compute Engine API" to be enabled or it fails project creation and, at least occasionally, leaves terraform in a non-reapply-able state until manually resolved.

Expected behavior

auto_create_network=false should probably auto-enable the required API(s?) and wait for it, or at the very least the documentation should note the dependency and possible required wait time.

Observed behavior

Error: Error deleting default network in project [REDACTED]: googleapi: Error 403: Compute Engine API has not been used in project [REDACTED] before or it is disabled. Enable it by visiting https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/compute.googleapis.com/overview?project=[REDACTED] then retry. If you enabled this API recently, wait a few minutes for the action to propagate to our systems and retry.
