Redundant allowance check
TL;DR
stakeTokens duplicates the allowance check that safeTransferFrom already performs internally, costing extra gas for no additional safety.

Description
The stakeTokens function performs an explicit allowance check before calling safeTransferFrom:
solidity
uint allowed = stakingToken.allowance(msg.sender, address(this));require(allowed >= amount, "Allowance too low. Please approve more tokens.");stakingToken.safeTransferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), amount);
This check is redundant since safeTransferFrom already includes an allowance verification. The duplicate check results in unnecessary gas consumption from an extra external call.
