   @rdblue yes I agree CHANGE might cause some wrong interpretation, but I 
don't think it is a big issue for end users, especially people who are only 
interacting through SQL. If they see the `alwaysNull` partition field I think 
people would understand it means that partition field was dropped in favor of 
the current one.
   
   I am good with REPLACE, it is also a part of HiveQL, and Athena also 
supports it for column updates.
