   > `Float16 -> Float32` and `Float32 -> Float16` use the generic numeric 
cast. The safe path calls `unary_opt(num_cast)`, so every element builds an 
`Option` and the validity bitmap is rebuilt. These two conversions cannot fail: 
every `f16` widens exactly, and every `f32` rounds to an `f16`.
   
   is this still applicable after https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/11219 
has been merged?
