Why are there in many examples elipsis, or three dots in front of an Angular2 Import.
It doesn't seem to be required, I can remove them and my application will still work. I saw this "pattern" in angular2 examples and in the seed I'm using.
I however would like to understand why this is done, I'm not sure if I'm looking for the wrong phrases because I've tried to look this up multiple times before.
providers: [...FORM_PROVIDERS],
directives: [ ...ROUTER_DIRECTIVES]
seems to be the same as
providers: [FORM_PROVIDERS],
directives: [ROUTER_DIRECTIVES]
Is it just for clarifying these are multiple providers/components?
