That is not fixing but sweeping the problem under the rug, is it?

Duy, untracked-cache is a fairly new toy and I wouldn't be surprised
if it has un-thought-out interaction with split-index which is also
a fairly new exotic toy.  As both are from you, can you take a look
at it?

We may want to make it easier to run tests with TEST-SPLIT-INDEX, if
we envision that the feature will bring us sufficient benefit and we
would eventually want to encourage its use to more people.  As it
stands now, only people who are curious enough opt into trying it
out by exporting the environment, which would be done by a tiny
minority of developers and users.

Thanks.
