Hi all, had a question for Compose devs: were there any discussions/concerns around misuse of Ambients? For example, I read something that suggested Ambients be used almost as a replacement for scoped DI components (i.e. Dagger @Scoped Component). That idea feels like a misuse of Ambients, but I cant put my finger on why. Are there any guidelines/mindsets we should follow when dealing with Ambients?

You just need to be careful with Ambients, that's all
