This is an abstract base type used in Stencila Schema for non-atomic document and metadata nodes.

It exists to provide a lightweight foundation for structured nodes in the schema, separate from schema.org's broader Thing model. It gives all compound nodes explicit type and optional id properties that are analogous to JSON-LD's @type and @id.

Key properties include type and id.
