      Description

      Section 3.1.2 metadata=full (odata.metadata=full) states

      • type: the type of the containing object or targeted property if the type of the object or targeted property cannot be heuristically determined

      If "heuristically determined" for metadata=full means: only look at the data values, not at $metadata, the only objects whose type can be heuristically determined are GeoJSON values.

      All structured type instances need $metadata knowledge.
