Research direction
Start by locating the union read implementation and its schema-resolution path for local and remote storage. Review how Array, NestedRow, and Map types are represented and merged across sources. Add focused tests for union reads involving these complex types; done means the tests pass with correctly resolved schemas and merged data.
