Currently, for querying on "number" datatypes, we can only use "range" or "near" operators. The "equals" operator supports querying only "boolean" and "objectId" values, and not numeric values.

If we want to do equality based matching for number datatypes, then we can leverage "range" using "gt" and "lt" to find it. However this might be sub-optimal in some cases (such as when performing equality match on decimals).

Therefore, this is a feature request for having equals operator support numeric datatypes (in addition to boolean and objectId).
