As Erick said, Term positions are kept regardless of whether you store
term vectors. The positional information is needed for phrase queries,
span queries, etc. You certainly don't lose the ability to use phrase
queries if you do not store term vectors. If you check out the Posting
class in DocumentWriter you can trace around and see how positions are
stored at the same basic level as the term that is stored. Positions are
first class citizens <g>.

Spans don't rely on the TermPositionVector, do they?
I always thought that the data from IndexReader#termPositions came
from some
other source. Or so.
