Description
getDefaultCreateCoder is provided with the Pipeline's CoderRegistry, which enables it to use standard Coder Inference. For the construction of the Default Create Coder, explicitly providing the TypeDescriptor allows it to ask the CoderRegistry directly rather than attempting to reconstruct the TypeDescriptor based on the elements within the Create.
This also makes some coder specifications significantly more terse, as the type signature must be respecified but the entire coder need not be constructed (e.g. KvCoder.of(VarIntCoder.of(), StringUtf8Coder.of()); becomes new TypeDescriptor<KV<Integer, String>>() {};, which is at least somewhat simpler to type out.
