Products are always service. The type field is legacy cruft actually(the good type was only used for our legacy Orders API which was deprecated several years ago). It's confusing but we haven't cleaned this up yet
I don't know what hierarchy_level_0 is , from what I can tell it's an internal field that is unfortunately leaking out, so really you should ignore it
to me I would use metadata to mark if something is physical or a service for my own product cataloguing, and as you say, separately there is a category to set for tax calculation purposes

I suspected that type was deprecated since its not in the documentation anymore. Glad to have that cleared up. Do you have any go to logic that I could use to determine if a product is goods or service?
hierarchy_level_0 would work if it actually got return from the api. Since it can be "service" | "physical" | "digital" having that would solve al my issues.
So the only way to categories products is to set metadata on all products?

ignore hierarchy_level_0 please

not the only option(you could set https://stripe.com/docs/api/products/create#create_product-shippable too I think), but it seems like the easiest/best solution to me

For what I know shippable cant be set when creating a product from the dashboard?
