+Notes:

+1. The result type for `day` has been documented as both `int` and `date` in
earlier revisions of this spec. The physical representation has always been a
4-byte integer counting days from `1970-01-01`, regardless of whether the Avro
field is annotated with `logicalType: date`. Readers may encounter manifests in
either form; per the Avro specification, unrecognized logical type annotations
are ignored, so the bytes on disk are identical.
Review Comment:
Or we can just simplify and not refer to the Avro specification at all.
