Ryan King commented on CASSANDRA-1935:
--------------------------------------

> If somebody has rolled back to a previous version of Cassandra that is unable to read an SSTable written by a future version correctly (indicated by a version change), failing fast is safer than accidentally performing a compaction that rewrites incorrect data and leaves you in an odd state.
