   Hey everyone, sorry for the delay just want to make sure we're following the 
standard improvement proposal process here:
   
   1.) https://iceberg.apache.org/contribute/#what-is-an-improvement-proposal
   2.) https://iceberg.apache.org/contribute/#how-are-proposals-adopted
   
   Going through the above 2 guidelines, this should go through a formal vote 
on the mailing list before merging since it's a spec change.
   
   Also, even though this change can be considered trivial because Puffin is 
relatively new, Puffin V1 was still technically voted on and agreed upon in the 
past. Especially since this is an optional->required change, it'd probably be 
best if this change was made as part of a Puffin V2. In hindsight, I should've 
thought of this, I mainly thought since it was trivial/not as adopted it'd be 
OK but we probably don't want to have these 1 off cases in our decision making 
in the community since then it becomes ambiguous when it's acceptable or not.
   
   What this would mean for the original PR 
https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/10288/ is that it should respect the 
spec as is it is today and have some fallback to read the sketch in case the 
NDV property does not exist.
   
   I'm going to send these thoughts on the mailing list discuss thread cc
