### Default values
The default value of a type upon initialization is recursively defined using `0` for `"uintN"`, `False` for `"bool"`, and `[]` for lists.
The default value of a type upon initialization is recursively defined using `0` for `"uintN"`, `False` for `"bool"`, and `[]` for lists. Unions default to the first type in the union (with type index zero), which is `"null"` if present in the union.
### Illegal types
Empty vector types (i.e. `[subtype, 0]` for some `subtype`) are not legal. The `"null"` type is only legal as a union subtype.
