CA1515 breaking vs. non-breaking #43159
Description
Type of issue
Other (describe below)
Description
The fix for "CA1515: Consider making public types internal" is documented as non-breaking. The rule states that "an application's API isn't typically referenced publicly" (emphasis mine). However, if those types are referenced, this is a breaking change. So, while the fix typically isn't breaking, I suggest to change the fix to be breaking.
