> Currently, function to_binary doesn't deal with the non-string `format` parameter properly.
> For example, `spark.sql("select to_binary('abc', 1)")` raises casting error, rather than hint that encoding format is unsupported. 
> In addition, `base2` format is arguable as discussed [here](https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/35415#discussion_r805578036). We may exclude it following what Snowflake [to_binary](https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/functions/to_binary.html) does for now.
