What are the consequences of using pac4j-oidc v6, which depends on spring-core?

I noticed that starting from version 6.0.0, pac4j-oidc has a dependency on spring-core.

  1. What consequences will this have for my project (Java 17 + Hibernate 5 + Tomcat 9) if I start using pac4j-oidc v6?
  2. Will it be necessary to rewrite the entire project to use the Spring Framework?
  3. Can I expect any other issues in the future (e.g., conflicts with other dependency injection frameworks)?
