This is due to historical reasons; we had fast-appends before merge-appends :) There are reasons to use fast appends in PyIceberg, since the metadata rewrite is relatively slow compared to other clients (Cython reads, pure Python writes). If we decide to go for this, I think we should be very clear about this in the release notes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
