Is it right to say:

Because the coinbase transaction would not have to establish an output, there
is not any want for the enter scriptSig.

Would a block be accepted through which the coinbase transaction has an empty enter scriptSig subject? Is there an instance of such?

Can every other fields be omitted, e.g. might the enter TXID and VOUT be omitted (as have implied values)?


Particularly, given this instance coinbase transaction (from right here):
