Tomoko Uchida commented on LUCENE-9855:
---------------------------------------

I understand the vector search is a kind of incubation project; I remember at 
the very early stage I hoped we could start it from the sandbox project but it 
was not possible with the apis. Here I've tried to find some level of consensus 
among us, but my attempt have not seem to be going well. :) (nevertheless I 
think I am inclined to support Julie's perspective or design on this.)

I can't say "it's a blocker so just fix it" nor simply throw away this, I'd 
like to wait and see to hear from others for a little while.
