Note that before GetTables / GetSchemas / GetColumns gotten implemented in Spark 3.0, this was all throwing wrong results or errors with Spark, and it has not been escalated for a long time. Only recently BI vendors are picking up serious interest in developing connectors that take advantage of these functions, and this has been reported as something that is an unexpected and unwanted behaviour.
