However, it can differ when the flake is located in a subdirectory of its source. Non-flake inputs (i.e. inputs with `flake = false`) can also be located at some path _within_ a wider source. This usually happens when defining a relative path input within the same source as the parent flake, e.g. `inputs.foo.url = ./some-file.nix`.
