Precision_step - number or string?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

In the official documentation precision_step is called as "number", but in
examples value is wrapped into double-qoutes: "precision_step" : "0" So, in
json terms, is it a string or a number? Is there more precision definition
of precision_step?

The value can be either a string or number since the code knows how to
interpret both:

The precision step is a Lucene-level concept and you can read more about it
on the Lucene site:
