PR #660 removed e.g. HAS ONLY queries for elasticsearch, as they were quite brittle. We should work to reintroduce them at some point.

Research direction

Review PR #660 and the current Elasticsearch backend to understand which optional features were removed and why. Narrow the scope beyond the example HAS ONLY query, then confirm the intended behavior and validation path with maintainers. Done means the explicitly selected features are reintroduced without the brittleness that prompted their removal.
