   This is actually Spark's defined behavior for insert into.
   
   
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/271c4f6e00b7bc7c47d84a8e59018e84a19c9822/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/DataFrameWriter.scala#L442-L450
   
   ```
     * @note Unlike `saveAsTable`, `insertInto` ignores the column names and 
just uses position-based
      * resolution. For example:   
   ```
   
   Which I know is confusing, but you'll have to take it up with the Spark 
folks.
   
   The fix here is to make sure your "INSERT" query matches the column ordering 
as your base table. (Or use other APIs for writing which can align columns)
   
   Would be glad to know if anyone else has another workaround for this or has 
a correction
