Tried to explain the problem in detail.

@override is working fine but composition is breaking if i am trying to add label percentage. I have used override with label percentage and it worked fine for other fields. But it is not working for field which is required by other subgraph.

Seems like progressive override is not supported for fields if they are required by other subgraphs?

How to fix this?
