When to use the Collection Supplier
Use the object supplier if you are unsure of the object type.
Pair any key with an object:class keychain and it will return the type of object, for example:
data:Project Members > object:class returns
class java.util.ArrayList
...
This means the Project Members Scaffolding data is stored as an Array List.
This keychain is useful for debugging purposes.
