| A @Provides or @Produces method that returns its single parameter has long been |
| Dagger's only mechanism for delegating a binding. Since the delegation is |
| implemented via a user-defined method there is a disproportionate amount of |
| overhead for such a conceptually simple operation. @Binds was introduced to |
| provide a declarative way of delegating from one binding to another in a way |
| that allows for minimal overhead in the implementation. @Binds should always be |
| preferred over @Provides or @Produces for delegation. |
