Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-12576:
-----------------------------------------------
This is not supported (for timestamp, we currently only infer
{{datetime.datetime}} or subclasses), so the error is to be expected.
Given there are several other "datetime" implementations in Python, and we
generally only support standard library types (+ numpy scalars) when inferring
the type for a sequence of Python objects, I am wary of adding such support for
cftime.
