MongoDB Extended JSON (v2) "$numberDouble" not working

Hey.

I have a "numberInput" field with value of zero (0) (or whatever). I want this value to be represented as a double number in mongodb.

I messed with lodash _.toNumber(0).toFixed(2) and stuff like this, it simply will not store it as double in mongodb. It's either gets to be string or int32. I don't want to rewrite my json validators in mongodb just for this (to allow both types int32 and double).

# insertOne query
{
  weight: {
    "$numberDouble": "10.5"
  }
}

This returns an error: " key $numberDouble must not start with '$'

If I use "$numberDecimal" or "$numberLong" that works.

What is wrong with "$numberDouble"?

Thanks,

G.
