Docs: example in "DTO: Excluding fields" is not clear

Summary

Example:

• Docs: https://docs.litestar.dev/latest/usage/dto/1-abstract-dto.html#excluding-fields
• Code:

config = DTOConfig(
    exclude={
        "id",
        "address.id",
        "address.street",
        "pets.0.id",
        "pets.0.user_id",
    }
)

Later is specifies:

and "pets.0.id" and "pets.0.user_id" represent fields of the Pets objects nested within the list of User.pets.

and

Given a generic type, with an arbitrary number of type parameters (e.g., GenericType[Type0, Type1, ..., TypeN]), we use the index of the type parameter to indicate which type the exclusion should refer to. For example, a.0.b, excludes the b field from the first type parameter of a, a.1.b excludes the b field from the second type parameter of a, and so on.

But I still don't understand what pets.0.id means :)

Here are my questions:

1. Is pets.0 an index of an object? For example in [Pet(id=1, name="Dog"), Pet(id=2, name="Cat")] will both of them not have an id? Or only Dog?
2. This sentence confuses me even more:

Given a generic type, with an arbitrary number of type parameters (e.g., GenericType[Type0, Type1, ..., TypeN]), we use the index of the type parameter to indicate which type the exclusion should refer to

Because neither User or Pet is generic. They don't have any type params.

I don't have any proposals on how to fix this, because I don't understand how it works :)
