@elisadinsmore comments, with my answers inline

• What is a parse tree?

• representation of code, easily transportable and interpretted.

• Under what conditions are we executing code immediately vs sending to the server?
• How do we determine which of those options (immediate vs server) we're using?

• We don't users to contemplate this. We just want users to describe what they want to happen, we can execute that serverside or in a datahook. serverside can be faster

• Does this replace or is it an alternative for the current Message option for adding in field messages?

• an alternative. More concise

• What is the value of using GroupByField vs manually ordering data by a specific column on the review stage?

• it is impossible to express GroupByField stuff via ordering. for operations across an entire sheet on things that happen across more than 1000 rows, traditional datahooks are not reliable.

• I'm not fully understanding what the compute hook would display as a final result in the orderTotal field - the sum of all prices grouped by orderID?

• correct, will address with docs
