+1, I strongly agree with Ryan. I do believe Hadoop catalog has greatly helped in Iceberg adoption (to try it out quickly). But we don't highlight its problem strongly enough. Even the [getting started page](https://iceberg.apache.org/docs/latest/getting-started/) uses only Hadoop catalog and no warnings are mentioned on that page. I have seen many users using the same catalog in concurrent scenarios and asking for help. But I do worry that if we deprecate it or remove it, It may hamper the adoption rate. So we are leaving it as it is. Maybe we can improve the warnings in the document section and introduce a page for catalogs in detail. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
