    I feel both are pretty complicated. Can we just do something similar to 
CombineUnion:
    
    ```
    /**
     * Combines all adjacent [[Union]] operators into a single [[Union]].
     */
    object CombineUnions extends Rule[LogicalPlan] {
      def apply(plan: LogicalPlan): LogicalPlan = plan transformDown {
        case u: Union => flattenUnion(u, false)
        case Distinct(u: Union) => Distinct(flattenUnion(u, true))
      }
    
      private def flattenUnion(union: Union, flattenDistinct: Boolean): Union = 
{
        val stack = mutable.Stack[LogicalPlan](union)
        val flattened = mutable.ArrayBuffer.empty[LogicalPlan]
        while (stack.nonEmpty) {
          stack.pop() match {
            case Distinct(Union(children)) if flattenDistinct =>
              stack.pushAll(children.reverse)
            case Union(children) =>
              stack.pushAll(children.reverse)
            case child =>
              flattened += child
          }
        }
        Union(flattened)
      }
    }```
    
    It's going to be simpler because you don't need to handle distinct here.
