You don’t need a new core/collection, just reindex everything again. Ideally since you’re using standalone (way better than cloud imo) you can use the same indexer, just do an integrity check after the fact to make sure the document counts are the same. You don’t really need to do that delete if you are just going to obliterate the previous install and index
