If the delte filter matches entire partitions of the table, Iceberg will
perform a metadata-only delete. If the filter matches individual rows of a
table, then Iceberg will rewrite only the affected data files.
+### `UPDATE`
+
+Spark 3 added support for `UPDATE` queries to remove data from tables.
Review comment:
I think you misunderstood what I was suggesting. Instead of changing
`MERGE INTO`, I think that the `UPDATE` docs should point the reader to `MERGE
INTO` for more complex cases. Something like this with a link:
> For more complex row-level updates based on incoming data, see the section
on `MERGE INTO`.
