> This parameter is only useful when your code depends on transitive dependencies, which is actually a very bad practice. Your direct dependencies always have the freedom to drop libraries, which could mean that your code won't work anymore.
> Removing this parameter will simplify the code and encourage developers to not depend on transitive dependencies.
