David Smiley commented on SOLR-8396:
------------------------------------

bq. the plan is that PointFields will use SortedNumericDocValues instead of 
SortedSetDocValues for multi-valued cases. Doing that involves much more work, 
since we need to change all the consumers. This patch is already getting large, 
so I think it may be better to tackle that in a followup Jira. 

Yes; definitely a separate issue... it doesn't seem related to this issue as 
this issue is about the index structure (value/range -> docs) not the doc value 
(doc -> value).

> In LUCENE-6917, [~mikemccand] mentioned that DimensionalValues are better 
> than NumericFields in most respects. We should explore the benefits of using 
> it in Solr and hence, if appropriate, switch over to using them.
