I can imagine a scenario where the junior DBA accidentally deletes all rows from some obscure table that wouldn't have logical implications for later transactions. But I suspect most people would perform recovery in a separate instance, and just hand-dump/restore the table in question. The point at which the above process becomes too complex (or less than obvious) for hand-recovery is precisely when unforeseen consequences of nixing a single transaction become too great.
