    It seems `StructType.acceptsType` and `ArrayType.acceptsType` call 
`isInstanceOf[StructType]` and `isInstanceOf[ArrayType]`. `isInstanceOf` and 
pattern matching are interchangeable in most cases up to my knowledge. 
    
    (I just found a reference 
https://www.safaribooksonline.com/library/view/scala-cookbook/9781449340292/ch03s15.html)
    
    Namely, this case below should be fine. (Up to my knowledge, Scala forbids 
case-to-case inheritance BTW)
    
    ```
    scala> case class A()
    defined class A
    
    scala> class B extends A
    defined class B
    
    scala> new B() match {case _: A => println(1)}
    1
    ```
