Can you suppress row $meta data?

When using listRows with a 'select' query to limit the response [for performance], I'm still getting extra columns (eg. $id, $sequence, $createdAt, $updatedAt, $permissions, $databaseId, $tableId) for every row. I don't need/use this. Is there a option to set to not have this returned?

It add a lot of weight when returning 1000+ rows and you only need 2 columns. [I'm using the NodeSDK]

On a similar token... is there an options to "invert" a Query.select([column]) filter? Aka remove a column by name from the results?

cc @user not bad idea. Possible, or complex for compatibility with db lib?

I thinkthis is by-design. For some reason.. If I could only remember it.. 😅 cc @user @user

What would be the "design" thinking behind it? It can be alot of extra data moving over the wire - for no reason in most cases.
