+// Common strategies around this are:
+// 1. Define the values outside of a task, so Mill knows how to create the anonymous
+// tasks before evaluation starts.
+// 2. Put the value itself into a task, so it can be properly ordered to be evaluated
+// before it's dependencies.
+// 3. Make it not a task but a normal def
+//
 // While an anonymous task ``foo``'s own output is not cached, if it is used in a
 // downstream task `baz` and the upstream task `bar` hasn't changed,
 // ``baz``'s cached output will be used and ``foo``'s evaluation will be skipped
