bq:  This started when I turned on "docvalues"

You _must_ re-index completely when changing something like this, so the notion
of removing the index completely isn't really any extra work.

Here's what I'd do.

1> just create a new collection with your current schema definition
and index to _that_.
That'll guarantee you don't have anything pre-existing that pollutes your index.
2> verify that this does what you want. Perhaps use a smaller set of
docs than your entire
corpus.
3> delete your original collection
4> If you require the same name, you can use collection aliasing to
make this change
transparent.

Creating/deleting collections and using collection aliasing are all
through the Collections API.

Best,
Erick
