In the thread code, why I get a warning about returning a State without using remember?

Creating a state object during composition without using remember

[Pablichjenkov]

@OptIn(ExperimentalMaterial3WindowSizeClassApi::class)
class AndroidWindowSizeInfoProvider(
    val activity: Activity,
): IWindowSizeInfoProvider {

    //@SuppressLint("UnrememberedMutableState")
    @Composable
    override fun windowSizeInfo(): State<WindowSizeInfo> {
        val windowSize = calculateWindowSizeClass(activity)

        return derivedStateOf {
                when(windowSize.widthSizeClass){
                    WindowWidthSizeClass.Compact -> WindowSizeInfo.Compact
                    WindowWidthSizeClass.Medium -> WindowSizeInfo.Medium
                    WindowWidthSizeClass.Expanded -> WindowSizeInfo.Expanded
                    else -> throw IllegalStateException()
                }

        }

    }

}

Above code makes lint warning me about using derivedStateOf without wrapping it in a remember block. Why is this? - Should I still remember it if I am returning it from a function?
I plan to remember it in the caller composable function scope not in this producer scope

If you plan to remember it in the caller then windowSizeInfo() probably shouldn't be marked composable.

Humm, I annotated @Composable because calculateWindowSizeClass(activity) is Composable, and the library doesn’t provide a non composy api.
They: implementation( "androidx.compose.material3:material3-window-size-class:1.0.1"

[Pablichjenkov]

But well, I might end up putting a remember on it

[Pablichjenkov]

Oh wait, I seem to find a non @Composy way of calling their function, thanks fellows
