   > I would rather make it short after thinking about it more. It would be 
good to add a sentence to `#### Semi-structured Types` section to clarify that 
`variant type is a semi-structured data type and should not be regarded as 
either primitive type or nested type at all times`.
   
   Agreed. In the ongoing PR #17256, @nssalian is adding the `Variant` type to 
the REST catalog OpenAPI spec. I think we should also establish a consensus 
that `Variant` is not a primitive type in spec.md, and the SDK implementations 
should reflect that consistently. @nastra WDYT?
