> In SPARK-22893 there was a tentative to unify the way dataTypes are reported in error messages. There, we decided to use always {{dataType.simpleString}}. Unfortunately, we missed many places where this still needed to be fixed. Moreover, it turns out that the right method to use is not {{simpleString}}, but we should use {{catalogString}} instead (for further details please check the discussion in the PR https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/21321).
> So we should update all the missing places in order to provide error messages coherently throughout the project.
