Review Comment:
   This brings 2 issues:
   - Having 2 ways of configuring the same thing will be confusing, I think. 
And having those 2 ways behaving differently is even more confusing: when you 
drop `withConsumerArn()` from read spec, it actually doesn't go away and stays 
in the savepoints forever.
   - Imagine a scenario: I start from LATEST with EFO, then EFO becomes not 
necessary. How do I disable EFO? Let's say I disable via NOT providing 
PipelineOptions. Then, `withConsumerArn()` is not a default anymore. And once I 
provide `withConsumerArn()` again, I will expect it to be default, but 
effectively it won't be.
   
   I know that it's a bit confusing too - NOT to have `withConsumerArn()`, but 
the real issue I see is that framework actually assumes `Read` instances not 
being effectively editable.
