[jira] [Created] (ARROW-5313) [Format] Comments on Field table are a bit confusing

Brian Hulette created ARROW-5313:
------------------------------------

             Summary: [Format] Comments on Field table are a bit confusing
                 Key: ARROW-5313
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5313
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Format
    Affects Versions: 0.13.0
            Reporter: Brian Hulette
            Assignee: Brian Hulette


Currently Schema.fbs has two different explanations of {{Field.children}}

One says "children is only for nested Arrow arrays" and the other says "children apply only to nested data types like Struct, List and Union". I think both are technically correct but the latter is much more explicit, we should remove the former.
