Get rid of the len check, I think this will be fine with “key in target_dict”.
There’s no guarantee that everything will treat “empty dict or list” identically
to “no dict or list,” so it’s better to keep the data in as close to the
original form as possible.

Done.

This comment doesn’t make any sense to me. I’m not sure what “applied” refers
to. What this line is doing is obvious to me, though.
