Nhat Nguyen commented on LUCENE-8165:
-------------------------------------

[~rcmuir] I continued your initial patch and completed the first round which removes all Arrays#copyOfRange usages. I will do another round for Arrays#copyOf. Could you please have a look? Thank you!

> This method is no good, because instead of throwing AIOOBE for bad bounds, it will silently fill with zeros (essentially silent corruption). Unfortunately it is used in quite a few places so replacing it with e.g. arrayCopy may uncover some interesting surprises.
> See LUCENE-8164 for motivation.
