Should I be able to see the full data lineage down to the source view/table level for a PowerBI Dataset/Report/App in Purview?

I can see PowerBI Reports/Datasets, but the lineage stops at the DATABASE level. What I would have expected is to see are the tables/views that the PowerBI Dataset uses as inputs. One of our main use cases for Purview was to be able to ask the question: 'If I change a database view or table, what PowerBi reports might break'. I don't think Purview can currently help to answer that question. Am I correct?
