Each field has one output type. If we change the output type of text-multi to an array of strings, it will break anything that currently uses that field type as a string. Regardless of whether text-multi has been misused in the past, I don't see why it's a problem to use list-multi (given all the same arguments that are being given for using text-multi also apply to that).
