Review comment:
       The concern isn't with trying to be schema-free necessarily, but with 
having the source of truth come from a location on the file store.
   
   Iceberg requires an atomic compare and swap operation to be able to 
correctly determine the current metadata file that acts as the root of the 
table at all times. Where this becomes dangerous is with multiple concurrent 
writers when using file based approach.
   
   However, it seems like there's maybe a zookeeper component involved in the 
Iceberg config?
