I believe this to be the culprit, yes (and thus - a bug in Elasticsearch).

The question of subfolders you may or may not have under each is simply a
question of how elasticsearch decided to split the data between the folders.

Is the only difference you are seeing between docs is this one field
existing/missing? I'd try and characterize this and perhaps figure out a
way to create minimal repro the ES team can run. Also, I'd hope there's a
way to merge multiple data folders into one so you could try that and see
if it indeed the cause for this problem

Cheers,
