I think the previous note might be more accurate than the table. For trace_block, trace_transaction, and trace_filter, there are no "diagnostic options," the methods just always return trace information.
| | `to` | Target of the transaction. | | ||
| | `value` | Value transferred in the transaction. | | ||
| | - `creationMethod` | Opcode used during contract creation: `create` or `create2`. Returned for `create` operations. | | ||
| | - `callType` | Whether the transaction is `call`, `staticcall`, `delegatecall`. Returned for `call` operations. | |

Nit: these are complete sentences, so the periods should stay.
