Short answer, no - it has zero sense. But after some thinking, it can make some sense, potentially. DisjunctionSumScorer holds child scorers semi-ordered in a binary heap. Hypothetically inequality can be enforced at that heap, but heap might not work anymore for such alignment. Hence, instead of heap TreeSet can be used for experiment. fwiw, it's a dev list question.
