Review Comment:
   we might want to clarify this meaning in the case of matching delete files 
with data files, the partition values can't be ignored we just need to use the 
empirical schema for the types from the manifest files?  I'm also not sure if 
there is an impact of partition statistics (reading quickly it doesn't look 
like there is any)?
