Description
I've noticed a couple of places in the code where we do runtime imports of Series just to do values = Series(values)._values
. It would be nice to avoid that.
This probably also means moving parts of internals.construction to somewhere like arrays.array_
. In particular I think this would require moving sanitize_array and _try_cast. Since sanitize_array is imported by other modules, this would be nice to have non-internals anyway.
Finally there are some functions in dtype.cast that might make more sense alongside sanitize_array, e.g. construct_1d_object_array_from_listlike
