+^1^: These integer types may contain values that exceed the range of R's
+`integer` type (32-bit signed integer). When they do, `uint32` and `uint64`
are
+converted to `double` ("numeric") and `int64` is converted to
+`bit64::integer64`. This conversion can be disabled (so that `int64` always
+yields a `bit64::integer64` vector) by setting `options(arrow.int64_downcast =
FALSE)`.
+
+^2^: Some Arrow data types do not have an R equivalent and will raise an error
+if cast to or mapped to via a schema. See
+[this discussion section](#no-compat-type) for an example of this.

Argh, I'm an idiot, I pasted this back from the cookbook without reading
properly, will update!
