      The call to wiredtiger alter is not transactional and will not be atomic with other writes in the same storage transaction. SERVER-68186 implements the short term fix to reconcile inconsistent index metadata during startup. But in the long term, we should investigate if any other issues could be caused by this non-transactional update. (e.g. the storage transaction rolled back but changes to index metadata did not)
