changes, you must update the leader index. Because they are read-only, follower
indices reject writes in all configurations.
NOTE: Although changes to aliases on the leader index are replicated to follower
indices, write indices are ignored. Follower indices can't accept direct writes,
so if any leader aliases have `is_write_index` set to `true`, that value is
forced to `false`.
For example, you index a document named `doc_1` in Datacenter A, which
replicates to Datacenter B. If a client connects to Datacenter B and attempts
to update `doc_1`, the request fails. To update `doc_1`, the client must
