Re: [I] When deleting data from Iceberg tables in Spark, the current approach is to delete all data and then rewrite the new data, which is very wasteful in terms of storage space and computation. However, when using the Trino engine to delete data from Iceberg tables, it only marks the data to be deleted with the pos flag. It is hoped that Iceberg's Spark runtime can do the same. [iceberg]

   > i think that if you set write.delete.mode = merge-on-read in the table 
configuration then spark will do positional deletes , the default for it 
according to the docs is copy-on-write - 
https://iceberg.apache.org/docs/latest/configuration/#write-properties:~:text=write.-,delete,-.mode.
 Trino does this by default since they dont supoort copy-on-write
   
   You are correct, I have completed the objective after making modifications 
based on your statement.
