> Casting a FixedSizeListArray to a compatible type but only a different field name isn't implemented:
> {code:python}
> >>> my_type = pa.list_(pa.field("element", pa.int64()), 2)
> >>> arr = pa.FixedSizeListArray.from_arrays(pa.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]), 2)
> >>> arr.type
> FixedSizeListType(fixed_size_list<item: int64>[2])
> >>> my_type
> FixedSizeListType(fixed_size_list<element: int64>[2])
> >>> arr.cast(my_type)
> ...
> ArrowNotImplementedError: Unsupported cast from fixed_size_list<item: int64>[2] to fixed_size_list using function cast_fixed_size_list
> {code}
> While the similar operation with a variable sized list actually works:
> {code:python}
> >>> my_type = pa.list_(pa.field("element", pa.int64()))
> >>> arr = pa.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]], pa.list_(pa.int64()))
> >>> arr.type
> ListType(list<item: int64>)
> >>> arr.cast(my_type).type
> ListType(list<element: int64>)
> {code}
