I do not want to respond on behalf of @willholley but in my understanding, in [his respective comment](https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/4710#issuecomment-1737168382) he opposed to extending the `allow_fallback` mechanism to `_all_docs`: _"I'm less keen on overloading it to removing the use of the `_all_docs` index"_. He also included a historical reference to suggest that it would not give us much: _"Mango did originally prevent the `_all_docs` fallback unless the query contained a clause that would require it. [..] lots of users just blindly added a `{ _id: { "$gt": 0 } }` clause to [..] work around the restriction."_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
