Are you sure? Shouldn't that be dataset 1 unavailable, dataset2 available?

Yes, at least if you don't use log backups. If you "recover/restart until"
the database is forgetting about everything what happened after that. So to
say, it is as if nothing happened on the db after the until time. If you
really need to switch between different database states, you should backup
your log (before starting a recovery) and with the help of these log backups
you can then go back to any state you had before.
