 * [type|http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-json-format/v4.01/cs01/odata-json-format-v4.01-cs01.html#sec_ControlInformationtypeodatatype]: the type of the containing object or targeted property if the type of the object or targeted property cannot be heuristically determined

If "heuristically determined" for metadata=full means: only look at the data values, not at $metadata, the only objects whose type can be heuristically determined are GeoJSON values.

All structured type instances need $metadata knowledge.
