> In the case that the index size is less than the floor segment size, the allowed number of segments is always computed as 1. In practice, it doesn't keep merging indefinitely only because {{doFindMerges}} has some logic that skips merging if the number of candidates is less than maxMergeAtOnce. This looks a bit fragile to me.
