Does TextAsset (.bytes) loadable with Addressables?

    I have `AssetReference` assigned with a .byte file where previously I load through Resources.Load<TextAsset>(path) then get the binary of it via `.bytes`.

    However when I do `aref.LoadAsset<TextAsset>()` the result is null.

    Is TextAsset unsupported? How to load the addressed .byte file? The .byte file is already in the Addressables panel's default group automatically when I link the file to the `AssetReference` field.

    EDIT : It seems to be my debugging error, TextAsset is in fact supported. (Please add a feature to remove threads?)

    Don't delete the thread, I didn't know that binary TextAssets were supported by Addressables until I found this post! So this was actually useful :)
