Review comment:
       >Can you add a part to the javadoc about when the input types would not 
be trustable (is it because of the string nulls from numeric columns, or are 
there other cases)?
   
   I have this blurb:
   
   > In this mode, null values are {@link ExprType#STRING} typed, despite 
potentially coming from an underlying numeric column
   
   but I have added the missing column case too
