The matrix incorrectly referenced miroir-zc2.6/7/8 as dump import enhancement beads, but zc2.6 is actually arm64 support and zc2.7/8 don't exist. Replaced with a descriptive "Future Enhancements" table that maintains traceability without false bead dependencies.

Score Comparability Benchmark
Tests whether _rankingScore values from different shards are comparable when documents are distributed unevenly across shards.
Problem Statement
Meilisearch's ranking pipeline computes scores using local statistics (term frequency, document frequency). When shards have very different document distributions, identical queries may return scores that aren't directly comparable, leading to incorrect merged rankings.
Experiment Design
- Ground truth: Single Meilisearch index with all documents
- Distributed setup: Same documents sharded across N nodes with intentional skew
- Measurement: Kendall tau (τ) between merged distributed results and ground truth
- Pass criterion: τ ≥ 0.95 on average across 10k random queries
Corpus Structure
- 100,000 documents total
- 10 shards (shard 0 = normal, shard 1 = 100× normal, shard 9 = 0.01× normal)
- Documents have: id, title, content (synthetic text), category (for filtering)
- 50 unique terms distributed across documents with varying frequencies
