`table DictionaryEncoding` is part of the definition of `table Field`, theoretically we could move the dictionary-ness onto `Field`. However, this would complicate downcasting, and given `Field` is part of `Schema` regardless this wouldn't change the fact that dictionary-ness is an inherent part of an array's schema.
