_Original reply by @niemeyer in https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833323816_ @mpvl We both understand that. What we're pointing out is that the intuition is a bare string being in fact required, and reading that...

_Original reply by @rogpeppe in https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833484678_ In case it isn't clear, the problem is that non-optional fields are often used to hold calculated values that aren't necessary to provide explicitly....

_Original reply by @seh in https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833499588_ I'm still missing something about Roger's point. In the example above, `#Foo.y` is _not_ an optional field. I take that to mean that it...

_Original reply by @seh in https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833556169_ Thank you for the "concrete" example. I see that specifying the `#Foo.y` field is not required here. What I—and, I think. @niemeyer—don't understand is...

_Original reply by @seh in https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833563240_ I wrote the comment above before reading @mpvl's https://github.com/cuelang/cue/issues/822#issuecomment-833554176, but got interrupted before I could post it. You are correct that I've been ignoring...
