Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-8396:
------------------------------------
bq. As an aside, is there something we need to keep in mind due to LUCENE-7086
for implementing these new numeric fields?
I don't think we need merged point fields anywhere... but that issue will cause
exceptions to be thrown even if we add a single unused point field to the index
unfortunately. We'll still be able to work around it even if we can't get that
issue fixed.

> In LUCENE-6917, [~mikemccand] mentioned that DimensionalValues are better
> than NumericFields in most respects. We should explore the benefits of using
> it in Solr and hence, if appropriate, switch over to using them.
