Under what circumstances will Utf8JsonReader.HasValueSequence be true?

I have begun working with raw value spans and sequences inside my JSON converters. I noticed that Utf8JsonReader provides a property to check to see whether the value is a sequence: HasValueSequence. When will this be set to true? I noticed that JsonDocument accepts a ReadOnlySequence<byte>, but I am mostly interested in the context of ASP.NET Core. I tried sending a 10MB JSON value to my endpoint, and it still was not a sequence.
