  • A common use case for this type of work is backfilling historical data due to additional / incorrect records having been received or updated after the fact
  • thus, it isn't reasonable to expect this to operate purely in a "roll forward" manner
  • famous last words, but the change to enable this type of logic feels fairly light
  • looking for initial feedback while working on additional integration tests

Seems reasonable to me to overwrite partitions to achieve a historical backfill (due to additional / incorrect records having been received or updated after the fact, etc.).

This seems very much in the same spirit as the table materialization which does a good ol' "kill and fill".
