   > I go back and forth on this PR -- it isn't technically an API change in 
the sense of a breaking API change, but also it changes the content of written 
parquet files. Arguable the content better matches the parquet spec, I am just 
really worried about unintended consequences of doing this

   Then how about splitting this up? First change the read behavior so `None` 
isn't treated as `0`, keep the `missing_null_counts_as_zero` setting, but 
default to false. If anyone is broken by that behavior they can workaround by 
setting it `true`. After that's been around a release, then change the behavior 
on write.
