Isso significa que ele **sempre terá um valor**, só que às vezes o valor pode ser `None` (ou `null` em termos de JSON).

Isso quer dizer que, os clientes que usam sua API não precisam verificar se o valor existe ou não, eles podem **assumir que o campo sempre estará lá**, mas que em alguns casos terá o valor padrão de `None`.

A maneira de descrever isso no OpenAPI é marcar esse campo como **obrigatório**, porque ele sempre estará lá.
