Mark Miller commented on LUCENE-1896:
-------------------------------------
We can't be that worried about decimal accuracy - we use float which is good
for 6 digits - if we were, wouldn't we use double (good for over double that) -
something about this argument hasn't clicked in my head yet.
If that was helpful (to scale by a some what arbitrary dampening factor) we
would just start by multiplying every score by .01 or whatever. It doesn't make
sense to me.
