   Hi @the-other-tim-brown  
   After doing some search and tests, I believe this page answered this 
question: 
https://github.com/delta-io/delta/blob/master/PROTOCOL.md#iceberg-compatibility-v1
   
   If the delta table is `IcebergCompatV1` , user cannot add Map/Array/Void 
types to the table schema and that's the issue I reported.
   
   > Block adding Map/Array/Void types to the table schema (and, thus, block 
writing them, too)
   
   
   If the delta table is `IcebergCompatV2`, Delta table fixed the write API:
