Lukas Rytz commented on SPARK-27681:
------------------------------------

Uh, I just did "find usages" in IntelliJ for the scala.Seq type alias: 2043 in 
method parameters, 1488 in method return types, 4525 total. So this is not 
going to be very easy.

> Use scala.collection.Seq explicitly instead of scala.Seq alias

> {{scala.Seq}} is widely used in the code, and is an alias for 
> {{scala.collection.Seq}} in Scala 2.12. It will become an alias for 
> {{scala.collection.immutable.Seq}} in Scala 2.13. In many cases, this will be 
> fine, as Spark users using Scala 2.13 will also have this changed alias. In 
> some cases it may be undesirable, as it will cause some code to compile in 
> 2.12 but not in 2.13. In some cases, making the type {{scala.collection.Seq}} 
> explicit so that it doesn't vary can help avoid this, so that Spark apps 
> might cross-compile for 2.12 and 2.13 with the same source.
