Mike Drob commented on LUCENE-9365:
-----------------------------------
[~mikemccand] - tested it, seems to fix the corner case, I'm not sure if there
is some other undesirable behavior that pops up from removing this though.
Maybe it's better to keep the {{maxEdits == 0}} part of the check and still
allow SingleTermEnum to exist here. Put up a PR with [~mharwood]'s original
test and the new change.

> Key: LUCENE-9365
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9365
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/query/scoring
> Reporter: Mark Harwood
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> When using FuzzyQuery the search string `bba` does not match doc value `bbab`
> with an edit distance of 1 and prefix length of 3.
> In FuzzyQuery an automaton is created for the "suffix" part of the search
> string which in this case is an empty string.
> In this scenario maybe the FuzzyQuery should rewrite to a WildcardQuery of
> the following form :
> {code:java}
> searchString + "?"
> {code}
> .. where there's an appropriate number of ? characters according to the edit
> distance.
