> The FuzzyQuery often causes misspellings to be ranked higher than the exact
> match, which seems to be an undesirable property generally.
> For example, in an index of surnames, if I search using a FuzzyQuery for
> "smith", the misspellings such as "smiith", or "smiht" would appear near the
> top of the search results ahead of documents that match "smith".
