Slot: purpose
What this table is for. reported_effect when its rows are the foci of a tested effect, which is the common case and which is derived from the analyses that name the table; otherwise what the rows are instead -- region or ROI definitions, atlas parcels, connectivity seeds, the peaks of a decomposition's components, coordinates cited from other papers, a stimulus list, demographics, descriptive statistics with no test.
A coordinate table is not an analysis merely by having coordinates in it, and this is the only field that says which it is. Absence means nothing decided: a table deliberately encoded as a non-analysis and one no pass considered are otherwise the same silence, and the coordinates of the first belong on the entity they locate (a Region's description) rather than on a contrast that never produced them.
A per-table answer, so it cannot be right for a table whose row groups serve different purposes -- results beside the ROIs they were tested in. Each row group states its own role in a CoordinateSet.
