I still see myself going to spark and Spark SQL for some tasks like stratified sampling which I haven't been able to properly do with pandas. Somehow the spark DF API feels more intuitive and I was able to figure out a lot by myself.

That's interesting as the Spark api was inspired by Pandas

Can you use groupby for your stratified sampling work?
