Sorry i have looked through the docs and the forum but still am not clear on what optional is supposed to mean. If, for example, I have non optional string copy I cache the value and in the event that the presence map has zero against this field I used the cached value. Is there a difference for a non-optional field? Eg should I have no cache for a non optional field and set the value to zero/blank when the presence map has zero against this field.
