Tomás Fernández Löbbe commented on SOLR-8396:
---------------------------------------------

Now that I think about it better, Legacy numeric types will have to be 
supported for all 6.x life, and can only be removed for 7.0, That's not ideal 
but also not terrible...
If Solr doesn't get it by 6.0 then yes, I guess it'll have to support them 
until 8.0

> 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.
