As discovered in hashicorp/vscode-terraform#1582 it turns out that we assume inputs in some modules as required, when they are actually not.
default = null
)So this ^ is why we're taking a more pragmatic approach and basically treat any required inputs as optional for any modules which we know were published prior to the date when the Registry implemented support for "nullable" inputs.
Importantly, this does not impact recently published modules and module versions. Those will continue to have inputs reflected as-is.
