Errors can contain anonymized and obfuscated sources allowing us to reproduce some of the issues - these would be included only when would are able to correctly remove any original names/types from the code, otherwise, sources would be excluded from reports.\n\nDefaults to `all` allowing us to collect all information including how features are used to help us prioritize future improvements."
