Name one technical reason why?
Unsorted would be exactly just as good, except also more general
purpose. The number of docvalues types should be kept to a strict
minimum, and should be generally useful to a variety of common
use-cases. Each type has a huge maintenance cost, and never goes away.
Every codec must implement every type.
