Yes it should be simple string values or, in other words, the doc should
look the same minus the changes. I should have stated this in my previous
comment but ideally those *_coordinate fields wouldn't come back at all.
The test case is:
- read back a doc that is already indexed
- change or add field (not location type)
- reindex the doc
- read back the doc and verify it is unchanged minus the change in step 2
To answer your question, yes the expanded fields are included in the insert
because we are reindexing the whole document. I agree with you, it looks like
Solr treats it as an additive operation.
