is a stream of values, so if you have a Flow<Boolean>
it's not obvious which boolean value you're talking about. Do you mean the first emitted value upon collection?the great warrior

backed by? How are values produced? This might help me understand why it makes sense for you to talk about "the value" of the flowrunBlocking { flow.first() }
but it's almost certainly wrong to do so, hence why I'm trying to grasp your particular use case betterthanks Joffrey Bion I really I appreciate your helpIs that sincere or passive-aggressive?
