The current support for selective disclosure is indicated by query {fieldName: {}}, which implicitly assumes the operator is $eq, with value being the current value in credential.
If selective disclosure was purely an option, and the other operators were allowed, it would support a challenge like “prove you’re an adult and disclose your age only if so”, e.g. so no PII about minors would be collected.
Discussed with @OBrezhniev in Slack, who said:
Interesting use case. Should be possible to implement without changes to circuits.
