Android insets: dealing with fears and getting ready for Android Q

Mobile developers avoid insets, they cause fear in them. But in Android Q it will not be possible to get around insets - you will have to study and apply them. In fact, there is nothing complicated about insets: they show which screen elements intersect with the system interface and suggest how to move the element so that it does not conflict with the system UI.
