Francois Saint-Jacques commented on ARROW-8283:
-----------------------------------------------
[~jorisvandenbossche] This filtering is done on the [python
side.|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/python/pyarrow/_dataset.pyx#L458-L478]
This is due to the fact that the FileSystemDataset constructor accepts a
path_or_selector.

>
> When passing a list of files to the constructor of
> {{pyarrow.dataset.FileSystemDataset}}, all files that don't exist are
> silently dropped immediately (i.e. no fragments are created for them).
> Instead, I would expect that fragments will be created for them but an error
> is thrown when one tries to read the fragment with the non-existent file.
