There was [an issue](https://github.com/apache/datafusion/pull/13240#discussion_r1829379935) that was encountered the other month where the type to be inferred was context specific. For example, `to_timestamp('-1'::varchar)` should not attempt to coerce the varchar back to an i32 or some other data type. Thus, I think that we may need additional information beyond just simple type -> type. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
