Github user gatorsmile commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/15690 @HyukjinKwon This PR is to collect the feedbacks from the others about implicit casting. Now, it seems like we should follow the general design principle. If we just put the target type as the function argument types, users easily hit the inconsistency between documents and source codes. Different databases have different behaviors. Actually, if you check the programing languages, the behaviors are also different.
