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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
