I think this is a really cool idea and it might make sense to use this for small collections (100k/200k documents).

New comment by diegolo in "What does code readability mean? (2018)"

diegolo — Sun, 11 Oct 2020 08:50:36 +0000

there is this quote from Clean Code by uncle Bob that I simply love.

'Avoid mental mapping: In general programmers are pretty smart people. Smart people sometimes like to show off their smarts by demonstrating their mental juggling abilities. After all, if you can reliably remember that r is the lower-cased version of the url with the host and scheme removed, then you must clearly be very smart.'
