It's also a bit more concise than satisfies. The difference between It's also a bit more concise than satisfies.
the two functions is that ``satisfies()`` tests whether spec
constraints overlap at all, while ``in`` tests whether a spec or any .. note::
of its dependencies satisfy the provided spec.
The ``satisfies()`` method tests whether this spec has, at least, all the constraints of the argument spec,
while ``in`` tests whether a spec or any of its dependencies satisfy the provided spec.
If the provided spec is anonymous (e.g., ":1.2:", "+shared") or has the
same name as the spec being checked, then ``in`` works the same as
``satisfies()``; however, use of ``satisfies()`` is more intuitive.
