I initially hesitated to support the drop of
nth_midxed_pack_entry(), since it was designed with things
like midx bitmaps in mind (specifically, to also support
lex-order-to-stable-order conversions).
I didn't know that nth_midxed_pack_entry was designed with either
purpose in mind, since it predates midx bitmaps by quite a bit.
Thinking on it more, I can imagine that you wrote this function
aspirationally envisioning something like MIDX bitmaps. And since you
and I discussed the design together quite a bit, I imagine that that's
the case ;-).
But I agree that after reading this series again, that the inline-ing
suggested makes sense (and doesn't conflict with any series I have in
flight which don't add any new callers).
Thanks,
Taylor
