         'json' reads and writes a UTF-8 JSON document. For convenience, and 
also because JSON is a very popular and human readable format, the stored 
VARIANT value is assumed to be JSON. However, JSON values are lossy: JSON has

   are what was the SQL method to translate to JSON?

   Check `fieldType.is(LogicalTypeRoot.VARIANT)` once at the beginning of 
checkVariantOptions and perform an early out otherwise.
