Hi, I see you said years ago :

"This is by design, singleton/transient doesn't really make much sense for a factory. Since with a factory, we want the factory method to run each time we resolve a token."

=> i dont realy understand your words here, why it doesn't really make much sense ?
Sometimes we want to make singleton services where his implementation need a other service from the container

exemple with cart service :

registerByValue(CartApiServiceInterface, new LocalStorageCartApiService());
 registerByFactory(CartService, (container) => {
    return new CartService(container.getInstance(CartApiServiceInterface));
  });

with CartService the fonctional service and CartApiServiceInterface the technical adaptor that can be change if we want to have a api by local storage or web api storage bh exemple

that is sad to be force to use instanceCachingFactory to overcome this issue

useFactory: instanceCachingFactory((container) => {
                return useFactory(container);
            }),

this sould be a "buildin" feature like the others with the options LifeCycle

Cordially
