I have noticed that Xcode fails to compile with

The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions

You can execute the below demo project to recreate the error. Once you uncomment confirmationDialog entries 11+ it fails to compile.

struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

Whiel it is easy to fix here if I just move some confirmationDialogs to another Button view, I have the same problem in another problem where I have to add many modifiers to a NavigationLink in a List View and there I cannot move it around ... :/

Any ideas what to do here?
