Github user cloud-fan commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/22775 I think I'm not qualified to make the decision here, as I don't fully understand the use case. It looks to me that one use case would be to run `schema_of_json` on a column and manually figure out what's the final schema, and then use this schema in `from_json`. If `schema_of_string` only accepts literal, I'm not how users would use it.
