Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-8396:
------------------------------------
The docvalues format is heavily related when looking at the larger picture
(i.e. from the user perspective, we're creating a new numeric field type as a
whole).
Different JIRAs or not doesn't matter... what does matter is if points are
released/exposed in an official release with the old docvalues format. That
definitely impacts future support, back compat, interfaces, etc.

> 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.
