 Do AndroidX packages get special treatment for accessing otherwise blocked internal AOSP APIs?

If yes, anyone knows how that's done? 
 @87c34046 I'm not aware that this is done. AFAIK, Jetpack libraries compiled by Google are the same as Jetpack libraries compiled by you or me and get the same rights as any other libraries compiled by you or me.

It's difficult to prove a negative, though. 
 @87c34046 No special treatment. They are linked into the apps and signed as such (plus the APIs can be renamed via R8/ProGuard).
