The name init does not suggest it would overwrite an already created version.

We discussed this on discord and @cart has at one point been on board.

I like this change, although it would be nice to change add_resource to set_resource at the same time to make the distinction clearer. Similarly, the 'Commands::insert_resource` should have its name unified based on its behavior.

See #1186 for more discussion on this topic.

Edit: I've made my own PR to solve this: #1352.

I've looked over the codes changes themselves, and they're simple and sane 👍🏽

{
let resource = R::from_resources(&self.app.resources);
self.app.resources.insert(resource);
if !self.resources().contains::<R>() {

This does "double hash" the type id. Resources don't currently have an "entry" api. And I don't think adding one is in scope for this pr. But can we add a // PERF: remove this double hash comment so it is discoverable?

That would be difficult in this case, because we need to both be modifying self.resources() for the Entry, and reading it for the from_resources call - so without some gnarly unsafe code, I'm not sure this is feasible.
It's also worth noting that this is using the bevy_utils::HashMap, so the hashing is rather cheap.
Also this only happens at app startup time, so the cost doesn't matter too much. I've added a comment explaining this though

makes sense. i added a "PERF" label here. I use those like TODO labels, but for places where we are knowingly leaving perf on the table.

Well in that case, I think we'll all ready to merge.

Message to future readers: Don't try and solve that perf thing, you're in for a world of unsafe pain.

# Objective

- The perf comments, added (by me) in #1349, became outdated once the initialisation call started to take an exclusive reference, (presumably in #1525).
- They have been naïvely transferred along ever since

## Solution

- Remove them
