> Much as route 1. (very lax casting of unions) would simplify my use case, in writing this up I realised that probably doesn't make much sense in general. Yeah -- I think of a Union as the way in arrow to represent a dynamically typed value: each row of a union can be one of a set of different types So I guess if we are casting from a union array to another type, I would as a user expect that each row of the union (regardless of what variant it was) would be cast to the target type -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
