A recipient can end up being unable to process a range deletion task if:

1. The recipient persists a "pending" range deletion doc for a migration.
2. The recipient fails over after cloning indexes, but before majority committing that index creation.
3. On step up, the index creation gets rolled back.
4. The donor marks the recipient's range deletion doc as no longer pending
5. The recipient submits the range for deletion from the op observer
6. The range deletion infinitely fails because the shard key index doesn't exist.

Until the range deletion task is processed, the recipient will be unable to re-receive a chunk that overlaps the range deletion task's range.
