No compaction-level tombstone clipping for multi-run tables +When a run has multiple tables, the `RunReader` path (in `range.rs`) does not apply the table-skip optimization.

Linear scan for SST range tombstone suppression in point reads +`is_suppressed_by_range_tombstones` iterates ALL SST tables and ALL their range tombstones linearly.

No WAL persistence for range tombstones -Range tombstones in the active memtable are lost on crash (before flush). This is consistent with the crate's design — it does not ship a WAL. The caller (fjall) manages WAL-level durability. - -### 2. No compaction-level tombstone clipping for multi-run tables -When a run has multiple tables, the `RunReader` path (in `range.rs`) does not apply the table-skip optimization. Only single-table runs get the `is_covered` check. This is a performance optimization gap, not a correctness issue — the `RangeTombstoneFilter` still correctly filters suppressed items. - -### 3. Linear scan for SST range tombstone suppression in point reads -`is_suppressed_by_range_tombstones` iterates ALL SST tables and ALL their range tombstones linearly. For workloads with many tables and many range tombstones, this could degrade point read latency. Consider: building an in-memory interval tree from SST tombstones on version change (similar to GLORAN paper's approach). - -### 4. Range tombstone block format is not upstream-compatible -We use a raw wire format (`[start_len:u16][start][end_len:u16][end][seqno:u64]`) with `BlockType::RangeTombstone = 4`. This is a fork-only format. When upstream settles on a format, we'll need a migration. - -### 5. No range tombstone metrics -Unlike point tombstones (`tombstone_count`, `weak_tombstone_count`), range tombstones are tracked in table metadata (`range_tombstone_count`) but not surfaced to the `Metrics` system (behind `#[cfg(feature = "metrics")]`).

Flush must NOT clip RTs to the output table's KV key range. During memtable flush, the KV data only reflects keys from that memtable, but range tombstones must cover keys in older SSTs outside this range. Clipping would cause deleted keys in older tables to "resurrect" after flush. Added `clip_range_tombstones` flag to MultiWriter (true only for compaction where input tables are consumed). 2. RT-only tables (no KV data, only range tombstones) now set `meta.first_key = min(rt.start)` and `meta.last_key = max(rt.end)` so the table's key range conservatively covers all its tombstones.

Do not flag collision concerns when the `ValueType` is distinct from user types. -- **Design decision comments**: When code has a comment explaining WHY a specific approach was chosen (e.g., "Use X instead of Y because..."), trust the documented reasoning. Flag only if the comment contradicts the actual code behavior. +- **Caller-handled edge cases**: Before flagging a function for not handling an edge case (empty collection, `None` vs `Some(empty)`, missing guard), read ALL call sites. If every caller already handles the case, the function's behavior is part of a deliberate contract — not a bug. Only flag if the edge case is truly unhandled end-to-end. +- **Type-system-prevented issues**: Before flagging a potential collision, overlap, or misuse, check whether distinct enum variants, wrapper types, or visibility modifiers make the issue structurally impossible. A `WeakTombstone` variant that never appears in user-facing merge paths cannot collide with user data regardless of key/seqno overlap. +- **Documented design decisions**: When code has a comment explaining WHY a specific approach was chosen, trust the documented reasoning. Flag only if the comment contradicts the actual code behavior — not if you would have chosen a different approach. - **Comment wording vs code behavior**: If a comment says "flush when full" but the threshold is checked with `>=` not `>`, the intent is clear — the boundary condition is a design choice. Do not suggest rewording comments to match exact comparison operators. - **Comment precision**: "returns the block" when it technically returns `Result` — the comment conveys meaning, not type signature.
