     repeated fields (i.e. list-valued fields) may only contain primitive types (not lists or dicts).
     This is enforced in this function.
 
     Args:
-      obj: a nested dictionary (from json), or None
+      obj: a possibly nested dictionary (from json), or None
+      strict: a bool, defaulting to False, to enforce that all values in the
+              result tuples be strings and, if boolean, lower-cased.
 
     Returns: a list of tuples, with each tuple having a (possibly) multi-part name
       and a scalar value.
