Why would I want to turn off flymake when using eglot?

Hi,

In the following section:

https://github.com/brotzeit/rustic#eglot

It mentions

Turn off flymake.

But it doesn't say why the user should do that.

Is this because eglot will manage flymake directly?

I want to use flymake and not flycheck when using eglot.

Just wanted to confirm.

Would it be good to mention why the user is turning off flymake in the README when using eglot for clarity?

I'm wondering the same thing... anyone have an answer?

Digging around I think we actually want to keep flymake ENABLED when using eglot.

eglot uses flymake to display the warnings, hints etc. that eglot fetches from the lsp server (the rust-analyzer).

if we turn off flymake, then we're turning off all the inline and hover suggestions... which entirely defeats the purpose of using eglot in for syntax checking in the first place...
