results in:
```
TASK [debug] **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
"msg": [
{
"color": "red",

},
{
"color": "red",
"name": "cherry",
"nesting": {
"alphabet": "consonant"
},
"nesting.alphabet": "none"
}
]
}
```
as expected.

results in `has no attribute \"nesting['alphabet']\".` see:
```
TASK [debug] **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'dict object' has no attribute \"nesting['alphabet']\". 'dict object' has no attribute \"nesting['alphabet']\"\n\nThe error appears to be in '/Users/mmortari/git/demo20230626-ansible-playground/empiric1.playbook.yml': line 43, column 7, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n # has no attribute \\\"nesting['alphabet']\\\". :\n - debug:\n ^ here\n"}
```
so it would seems like, empirically, squared accessor is not supported in `selectattr`.

```
so it would seems like, empirically, squared accessor is completely ignored and just raw/brutally splitted on `.` for the 1st argument in `selectattr`.
