Feedback Removing "public" API ...

https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/Graphics/pull/3104
How is documentation requirements connected to closing the shadergraph API?

 

SG api's that are consumed by HDRP/URP should obviously be public by most standards. Unity has a number of internal reasons around what is internal/public that don't really align with good practices. I've run into various forms of this before. Another is making stuff internal because 'it's in preview it might change'. It all mostly comes down to making their life easier in some way.

I don't think they really understand how this has played out for end users. The unintended consequences are often worse then the desired result, at least on the end user side. Ask most anyone who actually uses some of their lesser known/documented api's and I think most would agree having access is preferable to not regardless of whether it's documented or subject to change.
