According to the paper, the smell is described as follows:
Problem
If the columns are not selected explicitly, it is not easy for developers to know what to expect in the downstream data schema. If the datatype is not set explicitly, it may silently continue the next step even though the input is unexpected, which may cause errors later. The same applies to other data importing scenarios.
Solution
It is recommended to set the columns and DataType explicitly in data processing.
