Is there a need to specify dbPassword multiple times?

[svenakela]

In this doc and example for ha config, the dbPassword is specified in multiple places.

The first extra secret, why is it needed when the last two are specified?

Here:

lapi:
  replicas: 2
  extraSecrets:
    dbPassword: "secretpassword"

Here:

  env:
    - name: DB_PASSWORD
      valueFrom: 

And here

config:
  config.yaml.local: |
    db_config:
      type:     mysql
      user:     crowdsec
      password: ${DB_PASSWORD}

If the DB password is in a secret, wouldn't it be better to configure the extraSecrets.dbPassword as a proper secret too? Writing passwords in plain text hurts my brain.
