Trying to understand what kind of "pesudo"-jq this translates, will

last(g)

be something like (vm is not limited by scoping rules?)

( true as $is_empty
| ( g as $last
  | false as $is_empty
  | empty
  )
// if $is_empty then empty else $last end
)

Closer to write with reduce;

def last(g): reduce g as $item (
  { last: null, is_empty: true };
  .last = $item | .is_empty = false
) | if .is_empty then empty else .last end;

}
