"""
Load an ORC object from the file path, returning a DataFrame.

This method reads an ORC (Optimized Row Columnar) file into a pandas
DataFrame using the `pyarrow.orc` library. ORC is a columnar storage format
that provides efficient compression and fast retrieval for analytical workloads.
It allows reading specific columns, handling different filesystem
types (such as local storage, cloud storage via fsspec, or pyarrow filesystem),
and supports different data type backends, including `numpy_nullable` and `pyarrow`.

Parameters
----------
path : str, path object, or file-like object
