It looks like this got marked stale, but it's not actually stale.

Tests won't run until merge due to cloudiness. I'll post the results from a local run, and then fix the CI (if needed) once this is merged.

This is passing locally: ``` …/ibis on  databricks is 📦 v9.5.0 via 🐍 v3.12.5 via ❄️ impure (ibis-3.12.5-env) ❯ pytest -m databricks -n auto --dist loadgroup --snapshot-update -q bringing...

Snowflake and BigQuery both passing: ``` …/ibis on  databricks is 📦 v9.5.0 via 🐍 v3.12.7 via ❄️ impure (ibis-3.12-env) ❯ pytest -m snowflake -n 8 --dist loadgroup --snapshot-update -q...

Thanks for the issue! Can you show an example of what you're trying to get rid of or simplify?

@turntable-justin @deepyaman Mentioned you had built something like this already.
