> Starting with Apache NiFi 2.0, we should default any Use Avro Logical Types
> properties to 'true'. NiFi supports most/all Avro logical types as native
> NiFi record field types, so to get better datatype resolution downstream, we
> should be using Avro logical types wherever possible.
> Historically, the reason it defaulted to false was because NiFi originally
> used Avro before logical types were implemented, so when they were added to
> Avro, NiFi kept the existing behavior of not using logical types by default.
> At this point we should use logical types wherever possible (by default).
