   Regarding 3, I think atleast the error should be improved if its an internal 
limitation, for example:
   
   ```
   >>> pa.array([18014398509481984], type=pa.float64())
   Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
     File "pyarrow\array.pxi", line 320, in pyarrow.lib.array
     File "pyarrow\array.pxi", line 39, in pyarrow.lib._sequence_to_array
     File "pyarrow\error.pxi", line 144, in 
pyarrow.lib.pyarrow_internal_check_status
     File "pyarrow\error.pxi", line 100, in pyarrow.lib.check_status
   pyarrow.lib.ArrowInvalid: Integer value 18014398509481984 is outside of the 
range exactly representable by a IEEE 754 double precision value
   ```
   
   The error message says that 18014398509481984  is not exactly representable 
by an IEE 754 double, when according to the IEEE 754, it can be represented 
exactly. Should the error be clarified to say its an internal limitation?
