Maybe I miscommunicated something, but I was talking about a change like https://github.com/kadircet/llvm-project/commit/ff0c31d232b2aed9e95d69d16a9dfbb9babea711.

I think this still leaves possibility for future divergences. Conceptually we should either make stdlib index act as dynamic-index (what I am suggesting) or change its priority to be similar to static-index. Otherwise we're likely to hit more discrepancies as the code evolves. Moreover changing `createStaticIndexingAction` also increases the mental load around all the complicated indexing architecture now.
