Description

we can support non-alloc (aka copy out case) for more complex object trees with broadcast using schema if we add more checks.

We need to know if all of the leaves are compatible - which is a different check than if schemas are compatible.

Research direction

Start by locating the relay MPI broadcast path and its schema-compatibility checks. Determine where non-alloc copy-out handling evaluates object trees, then define completion as checking compatibility of every leaf separately from schema compatibility.
