      For a particular very specific use-case, we have the need to start a transaction and set its read timestamp to a value that could possibly be less-than/earlier-than the oldest timestamp.
      The use case is for when an existing open transaction has a read timestamp X, and another transaction is then opened and also set read timestamp to X, prior to the first transaction being closed.
