Hi, In my product, i don't want to use relevance score in my search queries. I have my own sorting algorithm once i have results. On searching i found that to avoid scoring, use post_filter insread of query clause. Here i want to get to know the side effects of using post_filter directly. Please…

Ignore relevance score completely by using post_filter only

This looks to be a bug no longer present in 7.2.
I'm chasing down where the fix was (Lucene or elasticsearch) but the reproduction script is here
