Description
Pandas version checks
-
I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.
-
I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.
Reproducible Example
mi = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([('a', 'b', )])
mi.reindex(mi.to_frame().values) # Works
mi = pd.MultiIndex.from_tuples([(1, 2, )])
mi.reindex(mi.to_frame().values) # Fails with ValueError: Index data must be 1-dimensional.Issue Description
Passing a list[tuple] to pd.MultiIndex.reindex always works. However, passing a list[list] fails when the levels are all pd.Int64Index, but seems to work otherwise. After calling .values, one typically ends up with a list[list]. It would be useful to have .reindex not fail.
Expected Behavior
Either fail for list[list] or accept both list[list] and list[tuple] with the same behavior. Since pd.DataFrame.values typically gives you list[list], it would be nice to support it so that both examples above work.
