Major Properties not present in a request payload are already interpreted as having the default value (if defined in $metadata) or the null value (if nullable and without default value).
Why not allow the same for responses.

| Proposal | Services MAY omit properties from responses if they have the default value defined in $metadata, or null value if nullable and without default value in responses to requests with odata.metadata=minimal or none. | Services MUST NOT omit structural properties from responses unless asked to do so via $select. |
| Proposal | Services MUST NOT omit structural properties from responses unless asked to do so via $select. | See summary |

| Proposal | See summary |
Clients can explicitly select a set of properties through $select, and can specify $select=* for all structural properties. Services must return all selected properties and can return other non-selected properties. In the absence of a select, the service returns a default set of properties. Any time the service returns less than the full set of properties (either because the client specified a select or because the service returned a subset of properties in the absence of a select) the metadata url must reflect the set of selected properties. If a select is present in a metadata url, it must include all expanded navigation properties. |
