   Ok, great explanation!
   
   My first thought was then "But what happens if you only have NULL values at 
the moment?"
   
   The answer is that you can pre-create the chunked array
   ```
   table = table.append_column(pyarrow.field("c", pyarrow.string(), 
nullable=True), pyarrow.chunked_array([[None]], type=pyarrow.string()))
   ```
