Review Comment:
   I think we probably do want to do this in `make_readable_file()` because 
then this will work for Arrow files as well. It's useful in other contexts to 
specifically *avoid* making a random access file, too (e.g., 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/34779 )...I think the right solution 
here is to make `make_readable_file()` aware of whether the result should or 
should not be a `RandomAccessFile` or not.
