(we could compare the latest instant on metadata timeline C8 and assume its 
applied?)
   
   Regarding this scenario, my thoughts would be to check rollback metadata 
only against unsynced instants, so only after C8. Is this potentially surfacing 
a more general issue though. Say metadata timeline has been synced up to C2, 
but data timeline archival has happened to C8. It seems next time we try to 
find unsynced instants we won't consider anything between C2...C8
