The wildcard limit is applied on the level of individual search units,
so for this query, the system would fetch 9 different word values for
Smith and 3 different word values for Ellis. So we are well inside
the wildcard limit.
We may get into troubles for `author:"Smith, *"` style queries, which
would require 929 different terms, triggering wild card limit. (Ellis
is fine with its 119 different terms.) But usually when first names
are not given one can use word index, not phrase index...
