Hello 👋 ,  
I am working on a deduplication project in O(n) time by using precomputed clusterIDs.  
It is working pretty well already but I found out that by collapsing id with a levenshtein distance between IDs, it is WAY better (like almost perfect). For the moment i am using collapse\_query and i don't want to injure the query time too much. I was wondering if there is a way to do that, and if not, how can i ask for this feature to be implemented ?  
Thank you
