Review Comment:
   Thanks. I agree with caller-side coercion for the numeric operand: callers 
can coerce multiplication and division factors to `Int64` or `Float64`, so 
`arrow-arith` does not need to support every numeric type.
   
   **I’m less clear that the same precedent requires coercing the interval 
representation. [#10336](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/10336) 
directly supports `Interval(YearMonth)`, `Interval(DayTime)`, and 
`Interval(MonthDayNano)` for multiplication by `Int64`; this PR follows the 
same input coverage. For `Float64`, the result must be `MonthDayNano` because 
fractional months and days can cascade into smaller components, and widening 
`YearMonth`/`DayTime` to `MonthDayNano` is lossless.**
   
   If callers should also normalize the interval representation, should the 
same rule apply to #10336, or is the distinction that integer multiplication 
preserves the input representation while floating-point arithmetic widens it?
   
   Could you also point me to a specific kernel or PR establishing this 
precedent for coercion between related Arrow types? The precedent discussed in 
[#6906](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/6906#discussion_r1894461220) 
appears to concern heterogeneous numeric operands; limiting factors to `Int64` 
or `Float64` already follows that boundary.
