      If a field in a struct is a slice, and it has no elements, and it is not omit empty, then it’s BSON value is nil.

      This means that you can’t treat it like an array (e.g. use $push,) and we ran into issues with $in as well.

      In MGO these types were [], and it appears that our application depends on this.
