A scalar that is not implemented by the agent should return noSuchObject. For a
table, in general you want noSuchInstance, which is saying 'i do not have a
value for this index, but I might have a value for some other index'. If,
however, the request is for a column that is not implemented at all in the
table, then you could return noSuchObject.

You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different.
