Description
[TypeForwardedFromAttribute](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.runtime.compilerservices.typeforwardedfromattribute) is remarks indicate:
> The [TypeForwardedFromAttribute](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.runtime.compilerservices.typeforwardedfromattribute) attribute enables the target framework provider to trace a loaded type back to the original assembly it was forwarded from.
I'm not sure if this is still relevant, but perhaps something could be added to this page stating either way what the best practice is.
Perhaps [TypeForwardedToAttribute](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.runtime.compilerservices.typeforwardedtoattribute) might also benefit from a back link to this page.
