Is index_prefixes intended to be used with text fields only?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hello,

It seems index_prefixes mapping parameter is only available for text fields but it is not really obvious in the doc.

Why this parameter is not available for keyword fields ?
Is it because the performance on small texts would be minor (while the indexing cost is real) ?

If yes, should we specify it in the doc like for index_options mapping parameter ?

Thanks
