Multi_match with most_fields option does not behave as documented

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hello,

The documentation on multi_match query [1] with most_fields specified, does not behave as documented. The documentation says "The score from each match clause is added together, then divided by the number of match clauses.", however what I observe is that the score of each match clause is added.

Could you please confirm what is the behaviour?

Thanks

Pascal
