    Description

      The WiredTiger drop incorrectly bounds the prepare timestamp at >= oldest, when the correct bound is > stable.

      This is a potential data consistency error.

      The WiredTiger ticket is WT-8745.

      The patch build is here: https://spruce.mongodb.com/version/61f88392a4cf476b5c07c14a/tasks

      Running a patch build on the change produces one consistent error, noPassthrough fails, but there's no obvious error in the output.

      Can someone please help us investigate this problem? – Thanks!
