Mark Robert Miller commented on SOLR-15672:
-------------------------------------------

>> The duplication is what bothers me the most.

That’s to the point of why these things don’t get a strong direction out of me. 
 How they end up trading off is complicated and dependent on a lot of details 
and testing and they are driven by what comes down to a lot of personal 
philosophy- you can drive towards towards complete machine friendliness and 
make no duplication, binary formats and efficient tiny data structures, or you 
can drive towards duplication and more verbose text for the humans involved, or 
make trade offs anywhere in between. Pulling out state updates, much more 
computer friendly, some direction negative for a human. People will vary in 
where they want to draw the lines. In this case, I have my own philosophy of 
what I’d drive towards, but I don’t know that trying to remove that duplication 
would turn out good or bad just from the motivation to remove a bit of 
duplicated information. If you put it in a large json file you have to read 
that file to get a bit of information. If you take it out of that file instead, 
you have to jump around to collect that information, and since it’s related to 
a functional single leader protection mechanism, what the cost is to involve 
one accessible data chunk representing the whole collection.
