establishConsistentCollections (that seems to establish consistent database) does not establish a consistent view of the database when a timestamp is provided. It uses the latest state of the collection catalog to determine which collections might exist and establishes a correct snapshot for them. However, collections that existed at the timestamp but has since been dropped would be missed.
We don't seem to use this with a timestamp so I suggest we remove the timestamp parameter to keep this simple.
If the desire is to establish a consistent database we'd need to traverse _nss in the historical catalogId tracker and filter on namespace and existence for a complete set of collections at the given time.
