Currently ast.dump() outputs values for optional fields even if they are equal to defaults. This makes the output unnecessary verbose. For example (kind and type_comment are optional): >>> ast.dump(ast.parse('x = 1')) "Module(body=[Assign(targets=[Name(id='x', ctx=Store())], value=Constant(value=1, kind=None), type_comment=None)], type_ignores=[])"
