The 'Vector DB vs Keyword Search' section caught my eye. In your testing for RAG pipelines, where do you draw the line?

We've found keyword search (BM25) often beats semantic search for specific entity names/IDs, while vectors win on concepts. Do you cover hybrid search patterns/re-ranking in the book? That seems to be where most production systems end up.
