Is the opacity of the drawShadow modifier supposed to change the opacity of the whole Box?

Changing the 0.3f opacity changes the opacity of the whole box and its contents. Simplified example:

@Composable
private fun StrangeButton() {
    Box(
        modifier = Modifier.then(
            Modifier.drawShadow(
                elevation = 4.dp,
                opacity = 0.3f
            )
        ).then(
            Modifier.background(
                color = Color.Green
            )
        )
    ) {
        Image(
            asset = Icons.Default.Person,
            colorFilter = ColorFilter.tint(Color.White)
        )
    }
}

Pretty sure it's not, I'd file a bug

FYI you can write your modifiers more concisely:

Modifier
  .drawShadow(…)
  .background(…)
