URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/23729#issuecomment-5027028838

   Updated: the reverse (narrowing) direction was unsound and is now blocked.
   
   `cast(date64_col AS Date32) op lit` casts the column down by truncating 
milliseconds to the day (many-to-one), so `cast(date64 AS Date32) = <day>` 
matches any millisecond within that day, while unwrapping to `date64 = 
<midnight ms>` matches only midnight. Since Arrow does not require Date64 
values to be whole days (arrow-rs#5288), the column can hold sub-day values the 
planner can't see, and the rewrite would drop those rows.
   
   This PR now only unwraps the **widening** `Date32 -> Date64` column cast, 
which is injective and sound (the Date64 literal is still checked for whole-day 
exactness, else left as-is). A new `is_date_narrowing_cast` guard blocks 
`Date64 -> Date32`, mirroring the existing 
`is_timestamp_precision_narrowing_cast`. Retitled accordingly.
