It's definitely $set for partial updates!

I thought $project was related to querying rather than updating, so I’m leaning towards $set too.

I’m pretty certain that $set is the correct answer, but I wish I could recall the exact syntax we practiced.

I remember something about $update, but it feels like that might not be the right choice for partial updates.

I think we used the $set operator in our practice questions for partial updates, but I'm not completely sure.
