Why the more Card components I have, the more elevated they are?

Hello,

I just realized something weird on Android 14 (but it might happen on any device): The more I display a Card component, the more elevated it gets.

So for example, I map through data and display a Card component for each data, one below another.

So I have, let's say, 8 times the exact same component but still, they don't have the same elevation. The one at the top has almost no shadow and the last one has a huge shadow. I tried setting elevation={1} but it does the same. Only elevation={0}, which removes the elevation completely, works fine and all cards component are consistent with no shadow.

Am I doing something wrong or am I missing something? I can't seem to find a fix for this behavior.

See the screenshot below for more details, elevation is set to 5 and all components are the exact same component with the same style:


If someone knows what is happening, feel free to drop an answer, thanks!
