> As discussed in FLINK-12848, the {{equals}} method of {{RowTypeInfo}} causes
> confusion because it does not consider field names which makes it difficult
> to use the type in data structures (such as hash maps) or testing.
> So far {{RowTypeInfo}} is marked as {{@PublicEvolving}}. However, it is not
> feasible to perform changes to {{RowTypeInfo.equals()}} in the current code
> base. The number of affected tests (>80) shows that this change is not
> trivial and would affect the stability of the legacy planner. However, most
> of the failing tests are in the legacy planner. It seems the Blink code has
> no problems with this change which is great! We suggest to apply the changes
> once we drop the legacy planner.
