may be greater than xmax
 
 When calculating upper and lower bounds for `geometry` and `geography`, null 
or NaN values in a coordinate dimension are skipped; for example, POINT (1 NaN) 
contributes a value to X but no values to Y, Z, or M dimension bounds. If a 
dimension has only null or NaN values, that dimension is omitted from the 
bounding box. If either the X or Y dimension is missing then the bounding box 
itself is not produced.
 
+##### Content Stats
+
+Iceberg v4 introduces content stats which represent stats in a 
`struct<struct<...>>`. The statistics for fields are tracked inside a nested 
struct of value counts and bounds (described in the next section). Each 
field-level statistics struct is a field of the `content_stats` struct, which 
holds all statistics for table fields.
+
+###### ID assignment for stats fields
+
+ID assignment follows a deterministic transform that maps from the **table ID 
space** to the **metadata ID space**. For a given field ID from the **table ID 
space** each nested stats struct gets an ID assigned from the **metadata ID 
space**.

Review Comment:
   I've slightly adjusted this, but the idea was to have a short example 
sentence that describes what this mapping actually means
