> There are some SQL functions which currently return VARCHAR(2000). With more strict CAST behavior from FLINK-24413, this could become an issue.
> The following functions return VARCHAR(2000) and should be changed to return STRING instead:
> * JSON_VALUE
> * JSON_QUERY
> * JSON_OBJECT
> * JSON_ARRAY
> There are also some more functions which should be evaluated:
> * CHR
> * REVERSE
> * SPLIT_INDEX
> * PARSE_URL
> * FROM_UNIXTIME
> * DECODE
