Review Comment:
Mostly because all existing user code uses named lookups. Plus, I'd imagine
indexed lookups would be fairly rare in practice since it requires knowing the
exact structure (i.e. field order) of the dataset schema upfront, which may not
be predictable if it was inferred from multiple files.
(It's probably not very consequential though)
