Christine Poerschke commented on SOLR-8621:
-------------------------------------------

Hello [~shaie], thanks for taking a look.

bq. ... I think they can be private since they're used only in SolrIndexConfig

I had considered package-visibility but assumed/think it's not possible since 
SolrIndexConfig is org.apache.solr.update and DefaultMergePolicyFactory is 
org.apache.solr.index. But your second point would make this moot anyhow.

bq. ... in buildMPFromInfo we just create a new instance (i.e. new 
DefaultMPFactory().getMP()).

Yes, that totally makes sense. My focus had been on having a single unified 
place where 'default merge policy-ness' is handled, changing the existing 
buildMergePolicy\[FromInfo\] code to also use the new default factory simply 
hadn't appeared on the radar. Good find! I'll go make that change.

Unrelated to the above, just pushed changes to {{MergePolicyFactoryArgs}} which 
will do away with the need to change {{SolrPluginUtils}} but still keep 
MergePolicyFactoryArgs as an abstraction which just happens to be implemented 
via a NamedList at the moment.
