@exceptionfactory i did consider some alternatives. I went with `uiOnly` because I specifically wanted to make it *very* clear that no other consumer should be using it. Ever. Because the point of it is that we can change what gets returned for that response at all. If we called it `minimal`, `truncated`, `summarized`, etc. even with that fact documented, a consumer would be likely to assume that if a field is populated in version 1.15.0, then in 1.15.1 it should be populated as well, etc. Typically, we do use a flag of `verbose`, where that can be set to false in order to bring back minimal details. But we maintain backward compatibility between versions there. Here, we do not want to guarantee any sort of backward compatibility between versions. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
