And it's even more trick when we think about commit retaining. My understand is that if transaction <n> had a commit retaining, subsequent new derived transactions will use the snapshot after the commit retaining in <n>. However, a already established derived transaction from <n> will ignore subsequent commit retaining done in <n>.
