To answer your question, I think everybody probably will prefer non OV matching because it captures more record.
But there's a performance implication to that because the moment you have multiple values here and multiple values here and then you have some sort of fuzzy matching on that, the combination it'll create in the tokenization and the comparison that adds to the processing time. So it really depends, like I've seen people use a match on a non OV a lot because it captures a lot of things, but when they see that the performance is a little slower and if they know that the data does not require you to basically compare the non OV, they would basically split that so that the first part like auto merging is done only on the OV value so that you're not really comparing everything there in the auto merging rule, and then whatever remains can be captured or can be caught by the second rule which goes after non OV values.
