> I would never recommend setting the `write.data.path` outside of the `location` path. I'm not sure if we would go down a path where we give hints on how to fix things in a way that aren't recommended. I think this is a slippery slope that we don't want to go down, for example, the hint does not include `write.metadata.path`, which could also lead to orphaned files. Thanks @Fokko, I think that's the better way to structure this hint. We kind of get the same message from AWS S3 folks, where `write.data.path` and `write.metadata.path` allows for customization, but generally recommended to stay within table location. Do you think it would be helpful to highlight such recommendation somewhere in the documentation? I am thinking about on the configuration page https://iceberg.apache.org/docs/nightly/configuration/ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
