Description

We leave parquet files for our built in datasets hanging around in the temp folder. First, it results in R CMD Check yelling at the R bindings because there is stuff in the temp folder after check, and second, a dangling file will be used instead of writing a new even if we update the dataset

Research direction

Start by reproducing the leftover built-in dataset files in the temporary folder and tracing the session-end cleanup used by the R bindings. Run R CMD Check to confirm the warning, then verify that session cleanup removes the parquet files and that updated built-in datasets are written rather than reusing stale files.
