      I was working with cheahuychou.mao@mongodb.com to investigate some ways to improve performance of an internal sharding query and we noticed that the first of these two generates a covered plan, and the second does not:

                  {"$project": {"_id": 0, "key": {"$meta": "indexKey"}}},
                  {
                      "$group": {
                          "_id": {"key0": {"$getField": {"field": "a.y.ii", "input": "$key"}}},
                          "frequency": {"$sum": 1}
                      }
                  },
      
                 {
                      "$group": {
                          "_id": {
                              "$let": {vars: {key: {"$meta": "indexKey"}},
                              "in": {
                                  "key0": {"$getField": {"field": "a.y.ii", "input": "$$key"}}}
                              }
                          },
                          "frequency": {"$sum": 1}
                      }
                  },
      

      Explains are attached.
