How to best model an eventually complete record in the schema?
The common way to model such a table is by using v.optional() to wrap those field values that don't need to be specified at creation; e.g. 
const myTable = defineTable({
  createdBy: v.id("users"),
  displayName: v.string(),
  eventuallyCompleteField1: v.optional(
    v.object({
      projectSlug: v.string(),
      teamSlug: v.string()
    })
  ),
  eventuallyCompleteField2: v.optional(
    v.string()
  )
})
const myTable = defineTable({
  createdBy: v.id("users"),
  displayName: v.string(),
  eventuallyCompleteField1: v.optional(
    v.object({
      projectSlug: v.string(),
      teamSlug: v.string()
    })
  ),
  eventuallyCompleteField2: v.optional(
    v.string()
  )
})
When inserting the document, you're only required to pass values for createdBy and displayName. The others you can pass later in mutations via ctx.db.patch, either singly or at the same time, however your logic needs to work. If passed, only the type you specified will be accepted in each case, or undefined to delete the existing field value.

Paginated indexed query with multiple index choices?
@Lee Just discovered that using .withSearchIndex on a stream is indicating a type error with the search filter: Parameter 'q' implicitly has an 'any' type. FWIW, in this particular case it's not a paginated query. I was using my original method of running multiple queries and adding all of the results to an array, but I thought I'd try to optimize it using streams and ran into this issue.

Me too. It's working perfectly! Thanks for adding those stream features!

Paginated indexed query with multiple index choices?
I might have just rubberducked this. While finishing my original post I was thinking, "I wonder if there's a way to merge queries," so I searched the docs for "merge" and found this Stack article: https://stack.convex.dev/merging-streams-of-convex-data If I'm reading it correctly, I could stream the queries for each region, merge them, then return the pagination of the result. Something like this: 
import { stream, mergedStream } from "convex-helpers/server/stream";
import schema from "./schema";

export const getRegionContacts = query({
  args: {
    regions: v.array(v.id("regions")),
  },
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    const contactStreams = new Array() // figure out the stream type
    for (const regionId of args.regions) {
      contactStreams.push(await stream(ctx.db, schema)
        .query("contacts")
        .withIndex("by_region", q => q.eq("region", region))
        .order("desc")
        .collect()
      )
    }
    return mergedStream(contactStreams, ["_creationTime"]).paginate(args.paginationOpts)
  }
})
import { stream, mergedStream } from "convex-helpers/server/stream";
import schema from "./schema";

export const getRegionContacts = query({
  args: {
    regions: v.array(v.id("regions")),
  },
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    const contactStreams = new Array() // figure out the stream type
    for (const regionId of args.regions) {
      contactStreams.push(await stream(ctx.db, schema)
        .query("contacts")
        .withIndex("by_region", q => q.eq("region", region))
        .order("desc")
        .collect()
      )
    }
    return mergedStream(contactStreams, ["_creationTime"]).paginate(args.paginationOpts)
  }
})
Am I interpreting that correctly?

Why no unions as function validators?
Gotcha. Curious, what's the use case where this would be used?

Could you elaborate? Maybe I'm not understanding what you're referring to. I use unions on occasion inside function argument validators without any issues.

App Disabled: How to Fix Convex Storage Issues
That figure in the stats represents how much was used in total during the month. Even though you removed files and brought the current usage below the threshold, there was still a time earlier in the month when the usage exceeded the limit. You'll probably need to speak with Convex support directly to see about removing the restriction.
