Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-10365:
----------------------------------------------

bq. if the goal is to hide implementation details

Who said it was the only goal? It's a goal, but avoiding too much unnecessary 
repetitions is also a goal. Of course, not making too hard on client 
implementors is also a goal. That said, I'm still wondering what is so hard 
about resolving UDTs. If you're going to read the columns definition, what's so 
hard about reading the type definitions first? I understand it's slightly less 
convenient but coming up with a new ad hoc notation just for that isn't 
terribly clean imo. Are you guys really that scared by a small indirection?
