GitHub user amoeba added a comment to the discussion: Flight RPC functionality in R package without python dependency
Hi @vh-d, I don't think there's a technical reason and I think you're right that it was purely a way to provide the functionality to R without writing a first-class R implementation. There's an existing issue for this at https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/31115. Short of contributing a first-class R implementation yourself, you might have a look an emerging spec for sending Arrow data over HTTP which has a lower barrier to entry while still providing great performance: https://github.com/apache/arrow-experiments/tree/main/http. There are examples in C#, R, and other languages.
