   I think f16 support was relatively recent -- added by @Jimexist  in 
https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/888 . I don't think there was any 
specific reason that f16 doesn't have as wide support as the other types.
   
   I would be in favor of having arrow-rs and datafusion match. I think 
decimal128 is a critical usecase for datafusion - as at least @liukun4515  and 
his team are using it heavily.
   
   I don't know of anyone using f16 at the moment (but maybe there are) so I 
don't think it is as important
