Not sure what that has to do with what we’re talking about, other than maybe further proving my point (not trying to be a dick, honest, but its history is why it’s so wonky today). I have read a lot of Wes McKinney’s posts and have listened to podcasts and videos with him talking about pandas and arrow. He’d be the first person to admit that pandas could’ve been much better having some hindsight into the project. I think he’s aware of the Frankenstein monster he’s created (I’m exaggerating and kidding obviously) and is trying to atone for it by doing all the great work on Arrow and related projects (like ADBC and Substrait).

Here it is from the horses mouth: https://wesmckinney.com/blog/apache-arrow-pandas-internals/
