Material Design: Should you use "Selection Controls" and "Text Fields" simultaneously
I know there are always exceptions to a design system.
But as a general rule, should you avoid mixing Selection Control and Text Field components?
I tend to think Selection Controls belong more in a settings screen, and Text Fields are more for form builders and other data inputs.
Thoughts?

Mockups
Below you will see a list of items on the left and settings for the selected item on the right. These settings consist of both "Text Field" components and "Selection Control" components. In this case, the Selection Control components being used are checkboxes. My question is whether or not these components should be always be allowed to be mixed, or do they have specific use cases. An alternative to the checkboxes would be a multi-select dropdown menu.
