> ARROW-10438 adds support for partition expressions with explicit absence of a
> partition key by including an {{is_null(field_ref("absent key field name"))}}
> in the conjunction. Whenever possible, this should be preferred to an
> equivalent conjunction which simply omits an equality expression for the
> missing field.
> Additionally since an absent partition key and a null partition key is
> semantically equivalent to a null valued partition key, we should ensure
> there is no difference in behavior. Currently, {{equal(field_ref("a"),
> literal(0))}} and {{and_(equal(field_ref("a"), literal(0)), is_null("b"))}}
> are formatted differently
