Why do the docs discourage the use of

flatMapMerge{}

? Android SQLite has a limit of 999 params per query, so I

window

my params by 999, call

asFlow

, then

flatMapMerge{ids->db.flowOfEntities(ids)}

. Is that wrong?

I’d say it’s because most of the time there are simpler operators that can be used to achieve the desired behavior, and

flatMapMerge

has very specific use cases. I guess for your use case it makes sense, although it is a pretty specific use case (a single flow that will emit various items)
