Reusing a form using the form() function from a resource

Greetings, instead of having to have a function that returns an array with the components i.e. getFormSchema(), is it possible to add the form to an action just like in a relation manager as follows?

public function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return SubscriptionResource::form($form);
}

public function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return SubscriptionResource::form($form);
}

This is what I am currently doing

Tables\Actions\EditAction::make()
    ->form(UserResource::getFormSchema()),

Tables\Actions\EditAction::make()
    ->form(UserResource::getFormSchema()),

If I do the following, I will have to click the action twice in order for the info or form to display

Tables\Actions\EditAction::make()
    ->form(fn ($form) => UserResource::form($form)),

Tables\Actions\EditAction::make()
    ->form(fn ($form) => UserResource::form($form)),

Solution:

Just create a method that returns the array of form components then call that method anywhere you need to use the form schema. I think you might be doubling up the form initialization.

That's what I am doing right now, I was just hoping there was a similar approach to Relation Managers, thanks tho
