   I am little confused here. I am still looking for an ans of this question: 
`Does this mean now Lucene supports BitVectorsFormat officially? Or it was more 
a prototype and not intended for production use?` 
   
   Another place where I don't have clarity is: what is the point of 
VectorSimilarity functions in case of bitvectors format. I can set a 
`MAX_INNER_PRODUCT` for bits vectors but the codec will use Hamming distance 
for similarity calculation. So it means getting setting vector similarity from 
a field is not the source truth for what vector similarity function to be used. 
Hence the implementations should come up with other ways to know what is the 
vector similarity function.
