BUG: Index[timestamp[pyarrow]].union with itself return object type (original) (raw)

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
• I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

schema = { "id" : "int64[pyarrow]", "time" : "timestamp[s][pyarrow]", "value" : "float[pyarrow]", } # fmt: skip dfA = ( pd.DataFrame( [ (0, "2021-01-01 00:00:00", 5.3), (1, "2021-01-01 00:01:00", 5.4), (2, "2021-01-01 00:01:00", 5.4), (3, "2021-01-01 00:02:00", 5.5), ], columns=schema, ) .astype(schema) .set_index(["id", "time"]) ) dfB = ( pd.DataFrame( [ (1, "2022-01-01 08:00:00", 6.3), (2, "2022-01-01 08:01:00", 6.4), (3, "2022-01-01 08:02:00", 6.5), ], columns=schema, ) .astype(schema) .set_index(["id", "time"]) ) df = pd.concat([dfA, dfB], keys=[0, 1], names=["run"]) print(df.index.dtypes) # ❌ time: object

Issue Description

The time index type gets coerced to object.

Expected Behavior

concat should maintain the dtype, since all concatenated tables have the same schema.
