Review comment:
I went back and forth on what to recommend here. I think we need to balance
the fact that this is a behavior change with the confusion that a user will
experience when options they specify are silently dropped.
I recommended going with `true` because: a) I don't know any V1 sources that
validate options where this change would break an existing program and b) the
only time behavior changes is when someone is specifying a (silently dropped)
partitionBy clause.
Thoughts?
