The test that is set up assumes a single shard. Since the test uses so few vectors and few dimensions, the statistics are pretty sensitive.
CCS tests seem to allow more than one write shard (via more than one cluster). Consequently, the similarity detected can vary pretty wildly. However, through empirical testing, I found that the desired vector seems to always have a score > 0.0034 and all the other vectors have a score < 0.001. This commit adjusts this similarity threshold accordingly. This should make the test flakiness go away in CCS testing.
