> My thoughts were more like, if we have a column defined as "double" we may allow "float" in the file definition but we wouldn't allow Binary. So how is this different? @RussellSpitzer I understand your point. This pull request can be seen as: * Improve the compatibility of data reading when the data content is known to be correctly encoded. * The hint that "binary is stored in UTF-8" comes from iceberg metadata. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
