One of the **biggest benefits** is that now you can create `Annotated` dependencies that are then shared by multiple *path operation functions*, this will allow you to **reduce** a lot of **code duplication** in your codebase, while keeping all the support from editors and tools.

For example, you could have code like this:

```Python
def get_current_user(token: str):
    # authenticate user
    return User()
