Hi Micheal, Field collapsing is basicly done in two steps. The first step is to get the uncollapsed sorted (whether it is score or a field value) documents and the second step is to apply the collapse algorithm on the uncollapsed documents. So yes, when specifying collapse.type=adjacent the documents can get collapsed after the sort has been applied, but this also the case when not specifying collapse.type=adjacent I hope this answers your question.
