`size` must be set whenever `offset` is set, so any offset-based read always
carries an
-explicit `size`. A self-reference (`uri` not set) must set `offset`, and
therefore also
-`size`. `size` may be omitted only for a whole-file external reference, where
the range
-runs to the end of the referenced file.
+explicit `size`. `size` may be omitted only for a whole-file external
reference, where
+the range runs to the end of the referenced file. A byte range within the
current file
+cannot be referenced: `offset` and `size` apply only to data referenced by
`uri`.
-A self-reference points within the same Parquet file using `offset` and `size`
(both
-required). A self-reference is when `uri` is not set. A file containing
self-references
-can be renamed or relocated as a single unit.
-
-Parquet files containing self-references must not use Parquet modular
encryption.
-Self-referenced byte ranges are not Parquet encryption modules and therefore
cannot
-be encrypted or authenticated independently. Encryption of external files
referenced
-by `uri` is outside the scope of the Parquet format.

Review Comment:
Perhaps a later spec change could add `key_id` etc for the buffer behind the
URI. Out of scope.
