   Hm .. sorry for joining this party late. I was reading and testing it by 
myself.
   
   
   ```scala
   scala> Seq((1, "a"), (2, "b")).toDF.show()
   +---+---+
   | _1| _2|
   +---+---+
   |  1|  a|
   |  2|  b|
   +---+---+
   
   
   scala> Seq(1, 2).toDF.show()
   +-----+
   |value|
   +-----+
   |    1|
   |    2|
   +-----+
   ```
   
   
   ```scala
   scala> Seq(Some((1, "a")), Some((2, "b"))).toDF.show()
   +------+
   | value|
   +------+
   |[1, a]|
   |[2, b]|
   +------+
   
   
   scala> Seq(Some(1), Some(2)).toDF.show()
   +-----+
   |value|
   +-----+
   |    1|
   |    2|
   +-----+
   ```
   
   I think this behaviour can be actually controversial. If we interpret 
`Option` as existent/missing value. Why did we interpret `Option` as `Tuple1`?
