> Can you explain somewhere why the new logical type is useful? The new repetition type might be sufficient, no? This is required to support nullable vectors and nullable vector elements in a standardised way. Although both of those require definition levels so will come with some performance impact. This also makes vectors consistent with the existing list logical type. The new repetition type alone would be sufficient for the common use case of required vectors and required elements. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
