   Hey @kevinjqliu Thanks for following up here, however, I don't think that 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/pull/700 is the appropriate fix. 
Instead, we should re-order the fields based on the table schema. I think we're 
quite close to that.
   
   The `to_requested_schema` will do this for us: 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/blob/31c6c23d428a3237589ebada2b4cd64bf37b1aef/pyiceberg/io/pyarrow.py#L1796
   
   I think we should do two things:
   
   - Remove the conditionality of that if-statement and just take the cost of 
running the visitor (I didn't like that one in the first place :). This will 
put the fields in the same order as the table schema when writing (otherwise 
they will be adjusted when reading). 
   - Fix the compatibility checker that we allow for out-of-order. I think 
checking if the required fields are in there is sufficient.
   
   WDYT?
