BUG: truncated repr with pd.NA in object dtype column shows "NaN" #33065

Open
@HYChou0515

Description

@HYChou0515

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

# this return '<NA>', cool
str(pd.DataFrame(np.full((60, 1), pd.NA)))

# this return 'NaN', not cool
str(pd.DataFrame(np.full((61, 1), pd.NA)))

# It's just a problem of str, the entry is actually pd.NA
# this return '<NA>'
str(pd.DataFrame(np.full((61, 1), pd.NA)).iloc[0,0])

Problem description

str(pd.NA) should always be <NA> or it will be confusing.

Expected Output

Output of pd.show_versions()
