AWS has better support for OpenSearch over Elasticsearch. Since this is the way Scout is deployed, it is easier to switch the development setup to use OpenSearch. The APIs are basically identical and interchangeable, with minor differences in their KNN types. However, those minor differences were enough to cause bugs in production, so we're switching the development environment to match production.
