      According to the commands listed in the API V1 commands `distinct` is not among these commands.

      Commands and features outside of the Versioned API do not have the same backward compatibility guarantees as versioned alternatives.

      We can use a non-strict client to use this command for now. But what is the recommendation for future proofing compatibility on applications that need to use `distinct`?
