   Thanks @aaltay -
   
   To add some context:
   
   pyarrow 0.16 contains new features and bug fixes that we (TFX) care about (just to list a few: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/6066
   https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/6006). So it would be nice it TFX can start using it in the next version (we were planning to release it at the end of April). But by that time, the latest beam would be 2.20.
   
   Note that this is not to say if this PR is not merged, any bad consequence will happen, because we can also decide to not start using pyarrow 0.16, and still rely on / add workarounds on our end. it's just more technical debt.
