Review Comment:
   I think we are missing some introduction of the general idea of migration. 
There should be 2 cases, where (1) users want to migrate using something like a 
CTAS, that is actually preferred because you completely cut tie with your old 
table. But it takes more time and might not be possible for production use 
cases. (2) users use in place migration, which retains existing files but add 
Iceberg metadata on top of it. And what we have in this page explains more 
about the later approach. Then we can divide into Hive and Delta cases to 
explain further.
