I remember something about reducing data redundancy being a reason for separate indexes. Is that right?

I think creating separate indexes can help improve query performance, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only reason.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know indexes can be useful, but I'm not totally clear on the best practices for when to create separate ones.

I think I know how to approach this. Separate indexes can improve query performance, but I'll need to consider the specific use case.
