RussellSpitzer opened a new issue, #18231:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/18231

   Follow-up to the `file` type work tracked in #17919.
   
   The `file` type implementation makes a file column's nested fields eligible 
for metrics in `MetricsConfig`, but does not actually collect statistics for 
the reserved sub-field IDs. Real `content_stats` collection is unimplemented.
   
   Two open questions:
   
   - Which nested fields should carry statistics. The spec discussion listed 
`uri`, `content_type`, and `inline`; `inline` is opaque and potentially large, 
so bounds on it may not be worth storing. Nitya's original draft excluded it.
   - How the reserved derived field IDs interact with the existing per-column 
metrics configuration, given that users never see those IDs in a schema.
