Thanks for the support, Amogh! Would be great to hear other opinions too! :)
Meanwhile, I have the PR for removing the unused schemas: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/12089 And this is the PR for the REST spec change for the new update type: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/12022 (This one requires a vote, but I wanted to solicit general opinions first) Hope this makes sense!
