> Since the system clocks cannot be expected to be stable/monotonous, the subsumption logic in the checkpoint coordinator should not decide which checkpoint is "newer" based on the system time.
> The checkpoint ID is guaranteed to be strictly monotonously increasing. It is a better measure to decide which checkpoint is newer.
