      Please see the example below. Why does 2nd query perform document lookups?

      db.createCollection('inventory')
      db.getCollection('inventory').insertMany([
      
          { type: 'food', color: 'yellow', name: 'banana' },
          { type: 'food', color: 'red',    name: 'cherry' },
          { type: 'car',  color: 'yellow', name: 'taxi' }
      
      ])
      // create partial index, which "should" cover name & color field
      db.getCollection('inventory').createIndex({ name: 1 },          { name: 'onlyRed', partialFilterExpression: {  color: 'red' } })
      
      // totalDocsExamined is one but should be zero
      db.getCollection('inventory').find({ color: 'red', name: /c/ }, { name: 1, _id: 0 }).explain('executionStats').executionStats.totalDocsExamined
      

      Here is the full explain result:

      A query matching a partial index performs document lookups, although all fields could be covered by the index.

      This issue was observed with the following versions of MongoDB: 4.2.1, 4.2.7, 4.4.0-rc9

      I raised this already on StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62342543/covered-queries-do-not-work-with-partial-indices
