The current cast design treats every `convert_map` call as "top level" because it always converts every column to variant independently, and complex types like struct combine child variants into parent variants. So I think it suffices to make `convert_map` check for a null input and append_null to its builder? And then a bunch of weird offset calculations can go away. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
