There was a problem hiding this comment.
While I do hate to lose the ascii art, the fact that we no longer need three sets of structs I think more than makes up for it.
Thank you @etseidl and @Rich-T-kid

# Which issue does this PR close? N/A # Rationale for this change The form of the Parquet metadata has changed a great deal since the module documentation was written. It's time for a small refresh. # What changes are included in this PR? Mention the new `PageIndex` structure and remove the ascii art diagram (sorry @alamb) that is now out of date. Since we no longer have two parallel sets of metadata objects, the section on the interplay between representation is no longer needed. # Are these changes tested? N/A # Are there any user-facing changes? No, just documentation
