Research direction
Start by tracing how Power Fx Core represents and resolves SelfNode and ParentNode, then identify the host-specific rules for reserved identifiers. Clarify the intended Core API and compatibility behavior before changing anything; the work is done when reserved identifiers are supported for applicable hosts and the redundant node types can be removed without breaking Canvas behavior.
