It looks like arrow lacks support for decimal16, decimal32 and decimal64 types. Are there any reasons for that?

You are welcome to propose formalizing smaller decimal types on the mailing list. Someone would need to volunteer to do the implementation work for it, also.

Thanks, @wesm. Please let me prepare the PR first, it would be useful for the sake of discussion.

Looks like #8578 implemented this feature, but the PR seems abandoned. Would be nice to find a way to push it over the finish-line somehow so Arrow can support Decimal[16|32|64].
