Summary0008442: Clarification on BaseDataType and Structure DataType in Structures
Description

I have not found any statement in Part 6 (I hope I have not just overseen it) that when the BaseDataType is used in a field of a structure it is encoded as Variant and if the Structure DataType is used it is encoded as extension Object.
I think this should be in the spec and not just knowledge you have to know.

Again, sorry if I have overseen such a statement, but I could not find any.

F.13 already has text:

When TRUE, the field’s value is allowed to contain subtypes of the DataType. All subtypes of Structure are encoded as an ExtensionObject (see 5.1.6). All DataTypes that are not subtypes of Structure are encoded as a Variant (see 5.1.7).
