Sean Owen commented on SPARK-6948:
----------------------------------
I tend to agree, ran into this just recently in the exact same context. It was
surprising when a tiny vector was made sparse and then not usable with
StandardScaler (with "subtract mean" enabled).
> VectorAssembler should choose dense/sparse for output based on number of zeros
