Review Comment:
`canCast` method I removed because it was not used
Now, answering you question. The way I understand it. `REINTERPRET_CAST` is
an internal function, that requires knowledge of the internal data formats. It
says to change the logical type without touching the underlying data format. It
can be used if both logical types use the same physical format.
`CAST` can actually modify data. E.g. you can cast an INT to STRING which
results in converting an `int` to `StringData`
