When to use action list vs. option list vs. default select? (feedback on polaris.shopify.com/components/selection-and-input/select)

Is there thought / guidance on when to use an action list vs. option list vs. default selects? A mini-pattern or expanded documentation would be helpful here! TIA

Hey Raquel 👋

1. ActionList is used for a menu of buttons/actions a merchant can take
2. OptionList is choosing between options of a specific group. It also offers a lot of flexibility like selecting multiple options
3. Select should really be used for basic form selections. It is meant to be used in a FormGroup more than anything.

Hope that helps.
