 Public Versus Private Services
 ------------------------------
 
-From Symfony 4.0, every service defined is private by default.
+Every service defined is private by default. When a service is private,
+you cannot accees it directly from the container object (using
+``$container->get()``). As a best practice, you should only create
+*private* services, which will happen automatically. And also, you should
+*not* use the ``$container->get()`` method to fetch services, but instead
+use dependency injection.
 
-What does this mean? When a service **is** public, you can access it directly
-from the container object, which can also be injected thanks to autowiring.
-This is mostly useful when you want to fetch services lazily::
+If you need to fetch services lazily, instead of using public services you
+should consider using a :ref:`service locator <service-locators>` instead.
