| Description |
|
The shell does not provide a way to create arbitrary BSON values. Such as:
These are values users should never create but are entirely possible for other applications to create. We should be able to insert these values into MongoDB during jstests. |

We don't think this functionality is reasonable for a user-facing shell. If we introduce a test-specific shell, we would potentially consider this functionality. However, this is not in the Platforms team's current roadmap and isn't planned for the future. |
