More details about initialisation

In our struct, we're declaring a variable of currentTime that is set as an optional value. What I am trying to understand is why this value in particular doesn't have any data at the first stage of initialisation, yet the others are assigned values at the first stage of initialisation via the keys from the JSON data.

Is it because our currentTime variable has to go through a bit of formatting for us to get back our human-readable timestamp?
