Issue

Search does return results when the weight attribute is configured as searchable.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Configure Elasticsearch.
  2. Navigate to Admin > Stores > Attributes > Product. Edit the Weight attribute, and set its attribute Searchable = Yes.
  3. Save the attribute, and clear the configuration cache.
  4. On the frontend, search for a text value (Example: bag).
  5. Observe that the search does not return any results.
  6. The exception log will contain an error message like:
{"type":"number_format_exception","reason":"For input string: \"bag\""}

Expected results:
