Is it worth having an assertion in flattenDictionaryStructure to make sure we don't end up in a cycle of flattening?

I'm not sure. Right now, flattening is a policy decision, and some callers choose to flatten even if in a cycle.

We could add the assertion, but only after changing the policy. It's not clear to me if a policy change is warranted or not.
