I'm curious why <https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.coroutines/kotlinx-coroutines-core/kotlinx.coroutines.flow/launch-in.html|the documentation> for `launchIn` says this:

```Note that the resulting value of launchIn is not used and the provided scope takes care of cancellation.```
Why is that the case? `launchIn` returns a `Job`, and if I call `.cancel()` on that job, it does seem to cancel the flow. Am I missing something?

<@UJQB4DJF7>, sorry, i'm not sure i follow

*in the example*, the resulting value is not used. the job belongs to the provided scope (`uiScope`) and will be cancelled when it is cancelled.

seems like we could just remove that line from the documentation and avoid any confusion.
