You're right. It's not necessary. I would go further and say that this syntax is a code smell.

If you're doing the OO thing with ComponentResource, then you should not have anything at the top level of any file, and this syntax will not be necessary.

Interesting… that’s quite strong but perhaps right

In any case thank you for responding <@U012UJTT55M> :pray:
