------------------------------------------------------------------
[~pauloricardomg] I didn't realize that a later version sstable loader could
write to an earlier version cluster. It makes sense with backwards compatible
streaming, but I didn't know if there were other obstacles to get that to work.
That should be good then I think. Thanks.

> As mentioned in other places such as CASSANDRA-8047 and in the wild,
> sometimes you need to go back. A downgrade sstables utility would be nice
> for a lot of reasons and I don't know that supporting going back to the
> previous major version format would be too much code since we already support
> reading the previous version.
