Aha, I thought I had seen someone try this before. Thanks for providing the
reference.
> [C++] Make Decimal representations consistent
> ---------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-13617
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13617
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Reporter: David Li
> Priority: Major
>
> Right now Decimal128 is represented as two 64-bit integers (in native endian
> order) and Decimal256 is represented as a std::array (in native endian
> order). We could make these consistent (presumably there should be no
> performance impact). It may also make it easier to extract a common base
> class or other niceties.
