> The error message for _verify_type is too vague. It should specify for which field the type verification failed.
> e.g. error: "This field is not nullable, but got None" – but what is the field?!
> In a dataframe with many non-nullable fields, it is a nightmare trying to hunt down which field is null, since one has to resort to basic (and very slow) trial and error.
> I have happily created a PR to fix this.
