Review Comment:
   right but that is at a logical level, i.e., the `numeric` data type is not 
necessarily a physical data type. That said I am extremely not familiar with 
datafusion 😅 so if you could point me to some code, I'd appreciate it
   Also I took a quick look at PG and I think it converts `int64` to the actual 
data type (`numeric`) but maybe I also missed something in PG's code base
