Disable ash policy breakdown for `can?` functions

In our system, we have

config :ash, :policies,
  show_policy_breakdowns?: true,
  log_policy_breakdowns: :error

Set for production because it help us debug bugs faster.

But, I noticed that this option will also show breakdowns when calling Ash.can? too. I have some of these calls to define what I will show in my sidebar menu, meaning that every time someone visits the page, it will log a bunch of policy breakdown errors.

Is there some way to disable this only for can? functions? Or the only way is to disable for all policy checks globally?

It’s only global at the moment.

We could add a new config for it likely, open to it :smiley:
