Current behavior

for example, if you have a function that debugs a list, it is called several times when, theoretically, it should only be called once.

Expected behavior

https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ymxjt6?file=app%2Fapp.component.ts

Like a list should work in the service To only be called once to instantiate it.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ymxjt6?file=app%2Fapp.component.ts

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?
