I disagree that this is “by design”. An operation like DROP TABLE should
use a v2 drop plan if the table is v2.

If a v2 table is loaded or created using a v2 catalog it should also be
dropped that way. Otherwise, the v2 catalog is not notified when the table
is dropped and can’t perform other necessary updates, like invalidating
caches or dropping state outside of Hive. V2 tables should always use the
v2 API, and I’m not aware of a design where that wasn’t the case.

I’d also say that for DROP TABLE in particular, all calls could use the v2
catalog. We may not want to do this until we are confident as Wenchen said,
but this would be the simpler solution. The v2 catalog can delegate to the
old session catalog, after all.
