It is used especially for sparse matrices. For example in `horzcat` and
`vertcat`, we already know how long the COO representation should be and we
allocate an `Array` instead of an `ArrayBuffer`. There, to index `Array`
correctly, we need `index`. It's not a bad thing that we can supply the `index`
of the underlying storage.
