Description
dtype = np.dtype("M8[h]")
arr = pd.array([], dtype=dtype)
>>> arr
<PandasArray>
[]
Length: 0, dtype: datetime64[h]
In most cases we'd like to align behavior across different constructors (pd.Series, pd.Index, pd.array). One case where we currently don't do that is with an un-supported numpy dt64/td64 dtype. pd.Series/pd.Index will raise on this, while pd.array will wrap it in a PandasArray.
I propose we deprecate that behavior and raise in pd.array like we would in Series/Index.
