The layouts do not rely on alternate resource qualifiers, and any required UI adjustments are handled manually in the code. Therefore, it is acceptable to use:
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"to prevent the system from recreating the activity on configuration changes.Otherwise, if the layout depended on configuration-specific resources, such as different layouts for landscape mode or screen size variations, allowing the system to recreate the activity would be the preferred approach.
However, supporting this behavior would require restructuring the layout logic to make use of alternate resource directories, handling proper state restoration, and potentially rearchitecting parts of the UI to respond to different configurations.
