Also from https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/8354#issuecomment-3986828962: > there's still an open question of whether we intend to follow the jsonpath spec in our path step logic, as e.g. spark does? [#8354 (comment)](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/8354#discussion_r2842833615) > > The jsonpath spec requires `foo[100]` to return NULL if `foo` is not an array, and also requires returning NULL if `foo` has fewer than 101 elements. Similarly, `foo.bar` should return NULL if `foo` is not a struct and should also return NULL if `foo` has no field named `bar`. Safe casting would only influence actual casting decisions, e.g. a `variant_get` call that specifically requests a string and the requested path points to a struct. > > In contrast, our current struct handling code currently returns an error if safe casting is disabled and: > > * a `Field` path step encounters a "wrong" type (L169) > * an `Index` path step encounters a "wrong" type (L224) > * an `Index` path step is out of bounds (L99) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
