| Oct 16, 2025 at 13:51 | comment | added | Basilevs | This question is similar to: Do we need to validate entire module usage or just arguments of public methods?. If you believe it’s different, please edit the question, make it clear how it’s different and/or how the answers on that question are not helpful for your problem. | |
