  1. can we handle this at a higher level? 2) why doesnt the pyarrow object's to_numpy work here?

It sets zero_copy_only to True which causes raising here.

we have to do a check like this somewhere as long as arrow is not a hard dependency, can do it at a higher level as well

moved it to a higher level, not sure if it is better though

else:
arr = arr.to_numpy()
elif not util.is_array(arr):
