useSnapshot and re-renders

[nosferatu500]

Hey! Thanks again for this great package. I want to clarify one thing.

For manual re-render subscriptions, I use the following construction:
useShapshot(ProjectStore).project.packageName - This value is not used in the current functional component, but I want to re-render this component when the packageName is updated.

Now I am using this construction:

// My functional component that I want to update when packageName changes, which is not used in this component.

useSnapshot(ProjectStore).project.packageName;

return (<>something</>)

and everything works fine, but I want to clarify the difference between
useSnapshot(ProjectStore).project.packageName and useSnapshot(ProjectStore.project).packageName

There is no difference in my understanding, but I'm not sure.

useSnapshot(state).a.b means subscribing to state and rendering if .a.b changes.
useSnapshot(state.a).b means subscribing to state.a and rendering if .b changes.
Technically, the latter can be more performant, because it's more granular subscription.
Only the former allows to mutate like state.a = ....
