kylebarron opened a new issue, #44232: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/44232
### Describe the enhancement requested Should the `pyarrow.scalar` constructor check for the PyCapsule Interface? It would allow any input with `__arrow_c_array__`, additionally validating that the input is a length-1 array. In this case it's less important for the _speed_ of sharing large data across multiple libraries than it is for the reliability of communicating Arrow data. An existing workaround is to use `pa.array(other_scalar).slice(0, 1)`, so it's not clear whether the `pa.scalar` constructor should or should not check for this. cc @jorisvandenbossche ### Component(s) Python -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
