Review Comment:
   Pull string coercion part out of `string_coercion` as `pure_string_coercion`
   ```
           (Utf8, Utf8) => Some(Utf8),
           (LargeUtf8, Utf8) => Some(LargeUtf8),
           (Utf8, LargeUtf8) => Some(LargeUtf8),
           (LargeUtf8, LargeUtf8) => Some(LargeUtf8),
   ```
