I think this feature is useful for operations like MERGE INTO where we populate changes from a source table that may have an evolved schema now. We have to be careful with assignment alignment in UPDATE and MERGE. I think Spark disables a few checks/rules if a table accepts any schema. That means we will have to reimplement it in Iceberg. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
