Yes, fq’s make up constraints in conjunction with q. The issue here though is
_clauses_. A single negative clause matches nothing. There is syntactic
sugar at the Solr level to allow for q and fq’s to have a top-level single
negative clause, like q=-type:pdf to return all non-pdf docs. That’s a
shortcut convenience to saying q=*:* -type:pdf. Once inside nested clauses,
have to be explicit. Gotta match something to exclude stuff.
