Why are previously public utilities now bundled as private?

Why are previously public utilities now bundled as private? I know they can still be imported from the private path but I don't understand why they are marked as "private". Part of the idea of the headless API is that you can build custom behavior/hooks using the same internals as what the primary hook API offers. In order to do so, you pretty much have to use these private utils.

For example, previously I could import { focusSafely } from '@react-aria/focus. Now I have to go fetch this utility from a "private" path: import { focusSafely } from 'react-aria/private/interactions/focusSafely'

Instead, I propose that the now private utils should be just exported as standard utils using the existing "exports": "./*" wildcard system. So in my above example, the import would instead be import { focusSafely } from 'react-aria/interactions/focusSafely'

These were never publicly documented. Yes you can import them but that doesn't mean we recommend their use.

Got it. Thanks!
