You can lose massive amounts of time debugging a broken query in ES, due in no small part to a lack of an explicit spec. To respond to the mis-aimed comment: It's not about just beginning learning - it's a problem the moment you want to p…
Are you referring to the drive to use more of a languages' built in operators to build queries, instead of my approach? I think the Mozilla library uses an approach like that.
