-
-        Alongside computing the value of the corresponding feature, this method
-        can also be used to updat the `_diagnostics` attribute, which is a
-        dictionary that can be used to store any additional information about
-        the feature computation. This can be useful for debugging or better
-        understanding how a feature was computed. Diagnostic information can
-        be accessed with `get_diagnostics` or via the `diagnostics` property and
-        updated with `_update_diagnostics`.
