You may be doing premature optimization here. Remember the copyTarget is store=false/docValues=false, so you are only actually storing unique tokens and document ids/offsets. I would recommend you start from that, do your first schema, figure out what you are not happy about, evolve it, etc.
However, you can also switch to eDismax and name specific fields you want to search with qf parameter. https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/the-extended-dismax-query-parser.html (extension of base query parser). Just remember that the processing of the field depends on the field type. So, with copyField, you were searching everything by that type (probably text). With eDismax, if your field is string, you have to match it exactly. Unless you copyField and process it twice. And so on. You have a lot of options, depending on your use cases. Good luck, Alex.
