Though there exist transformers/estimators/algoOperators that accept multiple inputs and output, the real case is that many of them still have single input and output (e.g., Logsitic Regression, K-Means, K-NN, etc). Thus to increase the usability, we would like to distinguish the main output and sideoutputs here. A code example can be found [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1L3aI9LjkcUPoM52liEY6uFktMnFMNFQ6kXAjnz_11do/edit#heading=h.58nok892sbom) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
