I tested on both Python version and Javascript version on JMSPath webpage, same results:

Testing query: users[?id == `1`].contacts[?type == `email`].value | [0]
JSON Data: {
  "users": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "name": "Alice",
      "contacts": [

          "type": "email",
          "value": "[email protected]"
        },
        {
          "type": "phone",
          "value": "+1234567890"
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "id": 2,
      "name": "Bob",
      "contacts": [
        {
          "type": "email",
          "value": "[email protected]"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]

Manual filtering workaround:
Manual result: [email protected]

From JSON above what query should be used to extract [email protected] without providing array index in query but rely only on filtering
