> The major cause of inconsistency here is that reference count does not change upon a call to BaseDataVV#getBuffers. However, it does change when the method is invoked on a composite vector type. See for instance VariableLengthVV[1] or a NullableVV[2].
> The proposal is to make this behavior consistent first and later we can consider separating out the logic that clears a vector from the logic that returns underlying buffers.
