It actually is part of it....

Below is the 'explanation' of a sample query "solar". I don't see the
boost value (1.5514448) being used at all in the calculation of the
document score - from the 'explanation' below and also from the quality of
the search.


How can I see the effect of document boost?

Document boost is not stored in the index as-is. A single normalization factor is stored per-field and is computed at indexing type using field and document boosts, as well as the length normalization factor (and perhaps other factors I'm forgetting at the moment?).
