Why though? You aren’t interacting with it. What difference does it make?

How are you not interacting with it? It’s a UI library, no?

You are using the components, not interacting with that 3rd party code. Unless you are debugging/contributing back

If the framework is used, eventually there will be 3rd party lib adding new features (from the top of my mind, maps), and someone will need to write the bridging with the native SDK. It means the bridge will most likely need to be written in objective-C instead of Swift
