Cell paths drill into nested tables #7494
Description
Describe the bug
Cell paths are able to drill into nested tables in an unexpected way.
How to reproduce
- Create a table nested in a list:
[ [{ foo: "bar" }] ] - Use a cell path for a column in the nested table:
[ [{ foo: "bar" }] ] | get fooor[ [{ foo: "bar" }] ].foo - Observe that you get a result instead of an error
Expected behavior
I expected Nu to return a ShellError, or maybe Nothing. IMO drilling into columns of nested tables automatically is very unexpected behaviour.
