   If i understand this correctly, ignore the missing partition doesn't indicate flink disrespect HMS as source of truth. I think it's important to figure out what does it mean for a partition without any directory or files. It looks to me hive treat it as an empty partition, because it not only ignore the error but also helped to fix this partition by creating an empty directory (correct me if i'm wrong). If this is true, then just ignoring it in Flink sounds reasonable to me. Ignoring this inconsistent means flink also treat it as an empty partition, but we don't have the ability to fix it.
