# Which issue does this PR close?
<!--
We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and
enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can
link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax.
-->
- Closes #8351.
# Rationale for this change
the current display method for `DataType:REE` is a big verbose & not pretty.
<!--
Why are you proposing this change? If this is already explained clearly in
the issue then this section is not needed.
Explaining clearly why changes are proposed helps reviewers understand your
changes and offer better suggestions for fixes.

# What changes are included in this PR?
Before: `RunEndEncoded("run_ends": non-null Int16, "values": Utf8)`
After: `RunEndEncoded("run_ends": Int16, "values": Utf8)`
note - the values field can still display null if the field is nullable
thanks to `format_field`, the non-null was only removed from the run_end field
because it cannot be null as noted by the arrow spec
<!--

# Are these changes tested?
yes
<!--
We typically require tests for all PRs in order to:
1. Prevent the code from being accidentally broken by subsequent changes
2. Serve as another way to document the expected behavior of the code
If tests are not included in your PR, please explain why (for example, are
they covered by existing tests)?
If this PR claims a performance improvement, please include evidence such as
benchmark results.
-->
# Are there any user-facing changes?
yes, users printing REE can expect a different output format now.
<!--
If there are user-facing changes then we may require documentation to be
updated before approving the PR.
If there are any breaking changes to public APIs, please call them out.
