PR: https://github.com/apache/lucene/pull/286
> Add a way to disable the sort optimizations to leverage points on numeric
> fields
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LUCENE-10089
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10089
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Adrien Grand
> Priority: Minor
>
> [~jimczi] [~romseygeek] [~mayya] and I were just looking at a case when it
> would be useful to be able to disable the sort optimization.
> Say you have a 8.x index that has a field that is indexed with IntPoint and
> NumericDocValuesField. This field is used for index sorting, and the
> SortField is created with SortField.Type.LONG.
> This was accepted in 8.x, but this is something that Lucene 9 would complain
> about: since the field is an integer, it should use SortField.Type.Int, not
> SortField.Type.LONG. If the field was not used for index sorting, then you
> could just switch to SortField.Type.INT and everything would work fine.
> However since the field is used for index sorting, if you switch to
> SortField.Type.INT, then index-time SortField objects are going to compare
> differently from search-time SortField objects, which in-turn will disable
> early termination of queries in TopFieldCollector.
> To be able to migrate from indices that fall in this scenario, it would be
> helpful to have an option that would disable the optimization to use points
> as well as the associated validation logic, similarly to what we do in 8.x to
> enable this optimization.
