 CloudWatch EMF uses the same dimensions across all your metrics. Use `singleMetric` if you have a metric that should have different dimensions.

+Generally, using different dimensions would be an edge case since you [pay for unique metric](https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing).

-    1. Binding your handler method allows your handler to access `this` within the class methods.
+    1. Metadata should be added before calling `addMetric()` to ensure it's included in the same EMF blob.
+    2. Single metrics are emitted as soon as `addMetric()` is called, so you don't need to call `publishStoredMetrics()`.
