Hello, i've been using the /\_stats endpoint to recover the size of my indices, however it seems that the values are not the same between `GET /_stats/store?expand_wildcards=all` and `GET /_stats?expand_wildcards=all`, i'm only interested in the total store value. The results look like this:

```auto
GET /_stats/store?expand_wildcards=all

".ds-test-1" : {
      "primaries" : {
        "store" : {
          "size_in_bytes" : 303107785212,
          "total_data_set_size_in_bytes" : 303107785212,
          "reserved_in_bytes" : 0
        }
      },
      "total" : {
        "store" : {
          "size_in_bytes" : 509955534347,
          "total_data_set_size_in_bytes" : 509955534347,
          "reserved_in_bytes" : 168212146305
        }
      }
    },

```

```auto
GET /_stats?expand_wildcards=all
".ds-test-1" : {
      "primaries" : {
        "store" : {
          "size_in_bytes" : 303113948595,
          "total_data_set_size_in_bytes" : 303113948595,
          "reserved_in_bytes" : 0
        }
      },
      "total" : {
        "store" : {
          "size_in_bytes" : 303113948595,
          "total_data_set_size_in_bytes" : 303113948595,
          "reserved_in_bytes" : 0
        },
      }
    }

```

Is there a reason for this values to be different? and what is the actual meaning of reserved in bytes and its relation to the rest of the values?
