CurtHagenlocher opened a new issue, #247:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-dotnet/issues/247
### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages,
version, and platform.
The following throws an exception even though it could return a precise
result:
```
var array = new Decimal256Array.Builder(new Decimal256Type(76,
38)).Append(2422.85527600000m).Build();
System.Console.WriteLine(array.GetValue(0));
```
In general, we could also consider allowing a consumer to say "I'm okay with
truncating a value whose scale fits in a `SqlDecimal` or `System.Decimal` but
for which I'd lose digits of precision."
