+- Remove default `additionalProperties: false` constraint from all object schemas.
+
+This update removes the `additionalProperties: false` constraint on all object schemas. This constraint was introduced on `0.16.x` but has resulted in significant downstream problems composing schemas whose types `intersect`. This is due to a JSON schema design principle where constraints should only be added (never removed), and that intersection types may require removal of the `additionalProperties` constraint in some cases, this had resulted in some ambiguity with respect to how TypeBox should handle such intersections. 
+
+This update can also be seen as a precursor towards TypeBox potentially leveraging `unevaluatedProperties` for type intersection in future releases. Implementers should take note that in order to constrain the schema to known properties, one should apply the `additionalProperties: false` as the second argument to `Type.Object({...})`. 
+
+```typescript
+const T = Type.Object({
+    a: Type.String(),
+    b: Type.Number()
+}, { 
+    additionalProperties: false 
+})
