> Unless I'm mistaken this is following the Arrow spec I'm not aware of a part of the arrow specification calling for a pointer width type, i.e. `usize` or `isize`, nor an unsigned 128-bit integer? > I prefer avoiding the unsafe buffer methods I appreciate this, but these APIs are not intended as a general purpose aligned allocation API, rather the backing storage for the arrow-rs array abstractions. Keeping the scope narrow, especially in an area that makes extensive use of unsafe, is quite important. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
