This seems very similar to https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/23127. i'm curious on opinions on allowing certain datatypes in data fusion to 'grow' for example `utf8`/`binary` -> `largeutf8`/`largebinary` or `dict<i8,_>` -> `dict<i16,_>`. currently schemas are immutable and changing this would require a lot of effort. like @2010YOUY01 mentioned > I think we could let it return a better error message, and suggest user to use LargeBinary type instead. is the best current option but ideally we could handle this for users -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
