I think we want to emphasize that the previous behavior was non-sensical and downright broken, not as much that we picked one another option vs another, almost as reasonable, option. In other words, I could see viewing it as a trade-off if we had actually emitted the newly updated row in phase 2. Something like: `3, 2, 1, (phase2)... 4, 5, 6`. Instead now it seems to be `3,2,1, (phase2)... 2,1,2,1...`. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
