       One usage of the default values is as an loop counter for messages going around and around. To define a loopcounter which is only defined on the msg object, define a default value <code>loopcounter</code> with the following JSONata code <code>$filter([$$.loopcounter,0,0], function ($v) { $exists($v) })[0] + 1</code> ($filter returns a single value if the array only contains one value else it returns an array).
