> This is a breaking API change, but {{MonthIntervalType}} and {{DayTimeIntervalType}} are different data types (and have different value sizes, which is not true of timestamps) and thus should be distinguished in the same way that DATE32 / DATE64 are distinguished, or TIME32 / TIME64 are distinguished
> This may nominally simplify function / kernel dispatch
