I'm not quite sure I'm following this. The current PR code is using the
presence of `update_seq` as a proxy for "this is a response from an actual
database" (as opposed to a response from a resource which returns a 200 but
isn't a database at all).
@kxepal Is your suggestion that we should also check for the presence of
`instance_start_time` in order to detect the case where a resource happens to
provide an `update_seq` but no `instance_start_time`?
