Review Comment:
   I am not 100% sure
   
   Some uses clearly are unnecessary where the type of the join is simply 
passed in: 
https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/fce3fb3033ae50e8590e075ffb11422112128233/datafusion/core/src/physical_optimizer/join_selection.rs#L569
   
   Other places like this are less clear that the output type is the same as 
the input type:

   I'll try and make a PR and see what happens if we don't send it
