I think that we can't do it. Because statistics of a column may have min/max, count distinct, max byte width and so on. For a `string` column, we can use `binary` for min/max but can't use `binary` for count distinct or max byte width. We need to use `int64`/`uint64` for them. So I think that we need multiple types for `value`. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
