What's the difference between Box and Surface components?
The Surface looks like a Material Theme specific component and that's it?

Basically. Box is becoming the new Stack as well https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/1427737

Surface sets some theme parameters for its content as well as elevation/shape clipping.

Box always felt like a generic purpose layout. Now it's becoming Stack feels right. Surface as you said in your question is related to material design https://material.io/design/environment/surfaces.html#material-environment
