Review Comment:
   it would be nice to have the more modern encoding as default! though I'm a 
little nervous about the implications of changing the schema for existing 
datasets - I know we have some downstream use cases where a single Parquet 
reader is reading a globbed filepattern matching multiple partitions of the 
same dataset - not sure what would happen if some partitions used 2-level 
encoding and some used 3-level encoding. Same concern about Parquet datasets 
that are the source of truth for external tables in Snowflake/BigQuery/etc. 
   
   maybe I can create an issue for this and request a bit more investigation on 
possible implications of this change?
